Injustice Town A Corrupt City, a Wrongly Convicted Man, and a Struggle for Freedom

The powerful story of a falsely imprisoned man and a sweeping indictment of a city and the criminal justice system by a Pulitzer-prize winning journalist.
When the bodies of two Black men were found sitting with a crackpipe in a parked car in a rundown section of town in 1994, it seemed just another day in Kansas City, Kansas. The swift arrest and conviction of a seventeen-year-old Black kid from a broken home raised no eyebrows either.
And yet, thirty years later, Lamonte McIntyre would prove to be the David that took down the Goliath of corruption that had long controlled the city's power structure and enveloped the city's justice system.
But the effort to prove Lamonte's innocence opened a Pandora's box. Before it was over, the fight to win Lamonte's exoneration exposed corrupt police and prosecutors, incompetent court-appointed defense lawyers, and a judge who violated ethical standards by his secret past relationship with the prosecutor, whom he favored in his rulings.
Injustice Townfollows Lamonte's case from its harrowing beginning to its triumphant end and beyond, including the legal tsunami that came in its wake, that engulfed prosecutors, attorneys, and judges. Most shockingly, the lead cop on the case was indicted by the Department of Justice for the widespread abuses he had committed years earlier on women in the Black community of Kansas City, Kansas. Abuses documented by Lamonte's team. The criminal case ended, literally, with a bang, denying Lamonte and those whom the detective hurt the chance for them to seek their own justice.
