The case illustrates many of the weaknesses of our nation's much maligned criminal justice system." "Wice follows the torturous legal path of this case as it wound its way for twenty-two years through first the New Jersey and then the federal justice system. His interpretations are informed by interviews with key members of both the prosecution and defense as well as previously unused court documents and transcripts. He evaluates the Carter case within a larger theoretical framework to illustrate many of the critical weaknesses of the adversary system and appeals process that are so basic to the American judicial system."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
