My Office Has Moved

My office will now be located at 813 6th Street, Suite 450, Sacramento, California, 95814. The telephone number is the same. The fax number is (916) 441-0970. The office is in the same suite as Clyde Blackmon's firm, Blackon & Associates. It is located in the Hall of Justice Building, which is across the street from the Federal Courthouse, and adjacent to the Superior Court and jail. This is a convenient location for my clients, and I look forward to working alongside my colleagues in the defense field.

Book Review: The Innocent Man

John Grisham's The Innocent Man is not only a great read but will help educate the public about the death penalty and the causes of wrongful convictions. This is Grisham's first non-fiction book. It is an engaging account of the wrongful conviction and death sentence of Ron Williamson--the innocent man. Grisham forces you to confront the suffering and injustice experienced by Mr. Williamson. His account of the terrible conditions on Oklahoma's death row is remarkable. The story is told through the point of view of Ron Williamson, which forces the reader to live through the awful experience. Grisham's books are, of course, widely read. I'm sure many of who will have read the book will become jurors, or at least informed citizens who will demand safeguards for the accused, and who will question the propriety of capital punishment.
