Damning and thorough indictment of Mississippi’s criminal “justice” system, while zeroing in on the incompetent and venal coroner and bite “expert” that helped ensure that injustice often prevailed. Prosecutors and judges also come in for their share. Investigative journalist and state Innocence Project director team up to lay it out. CW for child assault and murder.
