This thought provoking collection provides much insight on this controversial issue. Shirley Dicks was unable to hire a competent legal defence. At the trial the family was shocked when vital evidence was never presented to the jury. Jeff, who had no history of violent or criminal behaviour, was convicted of murder and sentenced to die in Tennessee's electric chair. Jeff's loved ones never lost faith in his innocence, and they shared in his daily burden of deadly uncertainty and experienced the painful frustration of their attempts to set him free.
