Committing Journalism
3.5 stars. I rounded up to 4 stars because I enjoyed the essays by Dannie Martin very much. The parts about the trial not as much. Prior to reading this book I would say I did not care at all about people in jail or how they were treated. If anything I thought they were treated too well. After reading this, I definitely have some empathy for prisoners. There is the question about whether prison should be for punishment or rehabilitation, and I believe it should be a bit of both. However, the current system makes it very difficult for prisoners to assimilate back into society upon release. Because of the treatment prisoners receive, they are often coming out much worse than they came in. This is a book I wouldn't have normally read except I received it from a friend, and I am glad that I did.
