Book excerpt: Did you know that in Maricopa County, Arizona, you can be arrested for a felony 3 (intent to kill your six-and-a-half-year-old child) in the middle of the day if you do not walk them up to the neighbor’s house? A Sheriff, like Officer Rogers, has the right to enter your house, search it without a warrant, not read Miranda rights and lie, knowing your child is actually safe at the neighbor’s house where you left her. Public defender Jamie Noland brainwashed an innocent, naive single mom into taking a false plea. For what? Power, money, control, or a step toward prosecutor? Judge McVey, with the reputation of a Nazi Judge, and Prosecutor Terry Clarke made a mistake in plea agreement. They had to cover it up by ruining a single mother and daughter’s life out of spite. The story that follows describes in detail these and other, people and events in the form of a screen play written over the past three years. Screenplays capture crucial moments and communicate with a direct emotional impact one expects in movies. The authors hope that this way of presenting the story enables readers to share in the nightmarish quality of Alison’s experiences that might be obscured in a more traditional biographical novel. And, of course, this story does not yet have an end.
