The Little Boy from SoHo

Soho in the nineteen seventies was not the trendy place to visit as it is today. It was a very dark part of New York City, abandoned factory buildings dotted the neighborhood, junkies roamed the streets, graffiti was everywhere.

On the morning of May 25, 1979, a boy, barely six-years old, was allowed to walk to his school bus stop alone, "ACCORDING TO HIS MOTHER." He never returned home.

That night, NYPD's NSU II was called into action and Officer Joyce and eleven other cops were assigned to search the little boy's neighborhood. Office Joyce had a nine-month-old daughter and the thought of her disappearing propelled him into a search that spanned many years. Through his investigations he learned about the dark secrets of SoHo.

The case eventually went frozen until a New Jersey man revealed his dark secret. A secret which he had kept in his mind for so many years. His revelation lead to his second trial and conviction. The trial judge sentenced the man to twenty-five years to life for a crime, the author strongly believes, he did not commit.

It has been thirty-nine years since the Little Boy from Soho went missing. This highly decorated Lieutenant, is now retired, but he wants to pursue this case in court, to exonerate the man from New Jersey, and reveal the truths that have haunted him for all these years.

One truth being that neither the Prosecution nor the Defense wanted the Lieutenant to testify in this case. This book will expose the truth that has been concealed for so many years.
