Isaac Wright Jr. was wrongly accused of drug charges in New Jersey and sentenced to life in prison in 1991. He was arrested, tried, and convicted under a draconian "kingpin" statute even though he never dealt drugs a day in his life. Even though the prosecutor knew he was innocent, as did the detectives who investigated and arrested him. Even though the judge subverted legal procedure and coerced jurors. Even though his co-defendants--some of whom were guilty of the very things pinned on Isaac--were given freedom in exchange for their lies about what he did and who he was. He used the prison library to educate himself in the law and helped overturn the wrongful convictions of dozens of his fellow inmates before representing himself, proving his own innocence, and bringing down the powerful and corrupt men that had aligned against him"-- $c Provided by publisher. 600 10 $a Wright, Isaac, $c Jr., $d 1962- 650 0 $a Prisoners $z United States $v Biography. 650 0 $a Judicial error $z United States. 650 0 $a Police corruption $z United States. 650 0 $a Criminal justice, Administration of $x Corrupt practices $z United States. 655 7 $a Autobiographies. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Biographies. $2 lcgft 700 1 $a Sternfeld, Jon, $e author. 941 $a 10 952 $l SFPH074 $d 20240716040514.0 952 $l RLPB371 $d 20240514011428.0 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20231010031233.0 952 $l EXPC755 $d 20230307010852.0 952 $l TDPH826 $d 20230302010758.0 952 $l UJPE911 $d 20230222012737.0 952 $l TYPH572 $d 20230207011440.0 952 $l CAPH522 $d 20230202010244.0 952 $l XXPH787 $d 20221207011012.0 952 $l GDPF771 $d 20221202011800.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=1AA5FB88720F11EDB6E4AA0447ECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b JIUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
