Framed

by John Grisham and Jim McCloskey

My enthusiasm for true crime documentaries is… not exactly shared by my partner. And admittedly, I thought this would be a tidy collection. Framed stands on the formidable shoulders of its creators: John Grisham, a master of the legal thriller, and Jim McCloskey, the champion behind Centurion Ministries, an organization devoted to exonerating the wrongfully convicted. The book’s foundation is grounded in meticulous research that exposes the roots of miscarriage: racism, flawed testimony, official misconduct, and institutional apathy. This book is more than the pervasive true crime we all know. It does more than tell a story; it indicts, acknowledging the justice system that too often betrays its name. This isn’t courtroom drama for entertainment; it’s advocacy sharpened to a point.
