In 1989, Ben Spencer, a twenty-two-year-old Black man from Dallas, was convicted of murdering white businessman Jeffrey Young—a crime he didn’t commit. From the day of his arrest, Spencer insisted that it was “an awful mistake.” The Texas legal system didn’t see it that way. It allowed shoddy police work, paid witnesses, and prosecutorial misconduct to convict Spencer of murder, and it ignored later efforts to correct this error. The state’s bureaucratic intransigence caused Spencer to spend more than half his life in prison.

Inspiring, heart wrenching…. A thorough excavation of the criminal justice system interwoven with the riveting story of a wrongfully incarcerated man. This book has been life changing. I have been educated. I am so grateful to the author for how she has shined the light of truth into the darkest recesses of the courts and police stations. I am hopeful this book will serve as a catalyst for the continued evolution of our justice system…. So that it can actually be just.
