Synopsis
The author exposes shocking corruption and abuse of power within the 18th-century French criminal justice system. Ordinary citizens had no rights before a system that favored the wealthy and powerful. The author details specific trials and barbaric punishments, citing a case where an innocent man was sent to prison for a crime he did not commit and one where a suspected child molester escaped justice thanks to his family’s wealth and status. This book gives names, dates, and places to these abhorrent practices, and demands reform. These true stories are a testament to the importance of due process and the rule of law for a just society.
