What an intense and crazy story. I am interested to see if there are any new developments in the future with this death row case.

This book made me cry. Children are so pure and deserve the world and the pain inflicted on them is completely unjust. The American “justice” system and CPS and foster care system is so broken it’s not a surprise that so many people in prison had horrific childhoods. I wish for peace for this man.

A reflective, compassionate look on the author’s childhood, without excusing the wrongs he committed. Dark and often depressing and well worth the read.
