What's surprising about the book isn't that McSweeney's managed to find so many of these people; it's that they didn't include more. After reading Surviving Justice, you realize how easily wrongful im...

She hired a lawyer and helped get him released from prison after he served 25 years for robbery. They married, then divorced in 2001 but continued to live together. The couple was building a cabin in the Duchesne area in 2002 when prosecutors say Harry shot his estranged wife in the back, killing her.
