About

Sequel plus original:
After being, fired from her post as Chief of the Special Victims Unit for refusing to "go along to get along," Alice Vachss published the incendiary Sex Crimes, described as "a stark, passionate closing argument in [her] broader case against the criminal justice system" by the NY Times, which named it as a Notable Book of the Year. Nick (Goodfellas) Pileggi called it "the single best book about prosecuting sex crimes in America, period." Now, twenty years later, Alice Vachss becomes Special Prosecutor for Sex Crimes in a new environment...on the opposite coast, in a small rural community. And, asks the critical question: What has changed? Sex Crimes: Then and Now shreds the myths about sex crime prosecution in America, revealing that the passage of time and a different locale are mere window dressing for horrors America has yet to face. For those who want something more than press releases and Trash-TV "coverage," this no-compromises eBook offers the brutal truth.
