And Justice for All the Great American Myth Part One: The Investigation and Trial

This book takes a critical look at the Wisconsin Criminal 'Justice' System by looking closely at the wrongful conviction of Wally Wessel IV, my son, through the state's own documentation. Before this case neither Wally nor I understood the depths that the state would go to convict an innocent person. I am wrote this book so that those who read it can come to their own conclusion as to the the state of the criminal system in Wisconsin. To accomplish this, the story of Wally's conviction will be told through the transcripts of the police reports, hearings leading up to Wally's trial as well as the trial itself. Each reader can judge for themselves if Wally was guilty of the crime of which he was convicted or the victim of a horribly unjust system. It is my belief that the people involved should be held accountable. My son died of suicide as a result of the time he spent in prison. Marsey's Law was just passed in Wisconsin which will make everything that the state did to Wally legal in all new cases once the state constitution is changed to reflect the new law.
