PAPERBACK. Condition: Fair. 0882770802 (Hardcover Printing) There is no dust jacket present, possibly as issued, and the cover show some moderate wear. There is some soiling/spotting on the outer edges of the book. Part of the first blank page has been clipped and there is some wrinkling on the lower outside corner extending to the bottom 1/3rd of the pages from moisture exposure. Fortunately, in spite of the wrinkling of the pages, the moisture appears to have been water, as it did not interfere with the legibility of the text. Overall, this is still a complete and very readable/functional copy of the title. Ships, well packaged and very quickly, from MI.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into a municipality's justice system through the lens of an investigation conducted by the Cleveland Foundation Survey of Criminal Justice. The survey unearthed shocking statistics indicating the majority of criminal cases never reached trial due to a prosecutor's excessive discretion in deciding whether to proceed. Prosecutors were found to be dropping charges with little explanation, accepting guilty pleas to lesser offenses, suspending sentences, and handing out probation at alarming rates. The author contends this discretion granted to prosecutors was being abused, resulting in widespread failures within the justice system. The book concludes by advocating for immediate changes to restore proper balance to the system. Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
