Who Killed the Women Known as the Jeff Davis 8? - Murder in the Bayou

Review:just finished reading and I am still reeling.....I live in Jennings and have followed this case for years. so many things I had no idea about that this book shed some light on. I was pulled over for speeding a few years ago by one of the cops mentioned several times in the book and I was scared to death. that this man was still on the police force should be a crime. he has moved to the next town over to terrorize their residents. I don't know if justice will ever be served because there are... Read more

The Run of His Life: The People v. O. J. Simpson
The Run of His Life: The People v. O. J. Simpson

Review:After over two decades, I still recall the shock of hearing the Simpson jury had returned a verdict almost immediately after a year long trial.

Crossing a hotel lobby, I, along with everyone else, stood rooted to the spot, eyes on the television. Almost before the foreman read the verdict, I knew that it could only mean one thing. No jury seriously studying evidence that would send someone to prison for life, could possibly return a studied verdict in less than a day. Even so, it was s... Read more

The Shocking Inside Story of Violence - and Remorse
The Shocking Inside Story of Violence - and Remorse

Review:Mike finally comes clean! He protected OJ illegally for many years knowing the truth that OJ "did it". The stashing of OJ's personal and sports items was certainly very illegal. The book again shows that juries do get it wrong at times when a good attorney lies and missleads. Read more

Murder in Brentwood
Murder in Brentwood

Review:I absolutely loved reading this book. I was only 8 years old when this happened, I started watching the television series of the murder, and was in ah to know a guilty man was set free. I became curious of all the characters, especially mark and began to wonder what happen, and decided to read his book, and not for a second was I disappointed. He explains in depth every moment and I love him even more as a person. They should've never let him go from the force or pressed charges against him. It'... Read more

In Contempt
In Contempt

Review:This book was better than I expected, not because of the insight into the trial but because of the insight into race relations from a black professional. I was extremely impressed with Mr. Darden's ability to explain the emotions and thoughts that blacks have about whites. From the beginning , Mr. Darden expresses his beliefs that blacks think differently than whites, but are fair, honest, and hard-working, despite the fact that many whites think otherwise. Mr. Darden's early optimism that th... Read more

An Insider's Account of the Trump White House
An Insider's Account of the Trump White House

Review:i am impressed with the level of detail Professor Omarosa included in this book. I can ramble on about how proud she has made me, a fellow Howardite. She took Trump to task on everything that is true to the communities and has the receipts to prove it. She is a modern day Biblical Esther and was serving her people (black, poor, and her fellow Americans) while in the White House. Omarosa thank you for everything. You are an inspiration. I wish you nothing but continued success. If you are consid... Read more
