The Injustice of Justice is a purposeful book designed to introduce
the public as well as the profession to an alternate method of
policing with a whole-community and responsibility-based approach.
Don has written the book from the perspective of a businessman
whose interest and subsequent involvement stems first from his
employee, then a compassionate and compelling group of individuals
in law enforcement and our justice system. Here are a few responses
to the book: "Equal protection under the law is one of the basic
premises of the American justice system. Yet many Americans feel
this concept is not only elusive, but virtually impossible to
attain. It's something we hope for and work to make real. Chief
Grady has given us a practical approach to seeking justice while at
the same time practicing reality. His book should be a must read
for courses in community-police relations and for individuals and
groups who want to better understand how our criminal justice
system works, what good policing is, what changes are needed, and
how we can all engage in making it happen." "Donald Grady has
presented a policing model that is way ahead of its time. This book
is a telling look at the inadequacies of our criminal justice
system from a criminal justice insider..".".a must-read for anyone
interested in innovative law enforcement strategies and forging
stronger police-community relations. In sharing his successful
leadership methods and progressive ideas, Chief Donald Grady has
provided a valuable service."
A revelatory narrative of the 538 Pennsylvania and New Jersey
privateers, privately owned ships of war some called pirates.
Manned by over 18,000 men, these privateers influenced the fight
for American independence. From the halls of Congress to the rough
waterfronts of Delaware River and Bay to the remote privateering
ports of the New Jersey coast and into the Atlantic, a stirring
portrait emerges of seaborne raiders, battles, and derring-do, as
well as incredible escapes from the great British prison ships
"vulgarly called Hell," where more than 11,000 men perished. A work
40 years in the making extracted from archives in both Europe and
America, it is a tale unrivaled by any Hollywood fiction.
Inspired by the infamous Northwest Branch Park murder case in a
peaceful Maryland suburb of Washington, D.C., this masterfully
intricate and epic story of crime and intrigue, love and courage,
tragedy and vengeance spans more than half a century. It tells the
tale of two women - one, a victim of a beastly killer; the other,
her sister bent on the ultimate revenge despite insurmountable
obstacles. Follow the events leading up to the June 15, 1955,
killing of two teenage girls, Ellen Marie Chauvanne and Mikie
O'Riley, and the ensuing nationwide hunt for a killer. Despite one
false lead after another, there was no resolution ... until a
surprising phone call was received more than forty years later.
Would it put an end to the crime dubbed by a major Washington
newspaper, "The Murder That Would Not Die"?
