April Moore

Around the turn of the century Folsom prison executed 93 men. This book is a collection of the true stories of the what and why of each guy, written only because of an unexpected find of records in an attic!
When you watch the news these days and see what a guilty man gets sentenced, it's a social injustice. 'Life' does not mean life in prison, death sentences get commuted, and prisoners have 'rights'. No so, back in time when that cell door clanged till you were hanged.
I can EASILY see see this book by April Moore becoming a tv show on the Investigation Discovery channel......i'd be one who'd watch!
ps- i honestly had NO idea that death by hanging took SO long! Too many westerns where death is instantaneous.....ohhhhhh no.… (plus d'informations)
