Besides being a treasure trove for students of criminal justice, the book s account of Rix s extensive research into the Krone case will cause careful readers to wonder whether Krone got out of prison because another innocent man took his place. Justice gone twice awry = the perfect crime!

Jim Rix is a computer programmer by trade. In 1993, Rix began an extraordinary odyssey helping to save his cousin Ray Krone from the American justice system chronicling what he saw and learned along the way. He lives high in the Sierra Nevada Mountains near Lake Tahoe. Jingle Jangle is his first book.
Jim Rix s ordinary life was interrupted when he learned in 1992 that a cousin was on Arizona s Death Row. Rix had never met Ray Krone and initially took only a casual interest in his case. He soon learned that among the abundance of evidence (fingerprints, footprints, pubic hairs, eyewitness testimony, DNA), only a bite mark tied his cousin to the murder of Kim Ancona, a Phoenix bartender. Questioning Ray s guilt, Rix invited a well-respected odontologist (bite mark expert) into the evidence room in the basement of the Maricopa County courthouse to compare the evidentiary bite mark photos to the cast of Ray s dentition. The second opinion not only convinced Rix of his cousin s innocence, but also embarked him on an extraordinary, eye-opening journey through the criminal justice system. Jingle Jangle is not simply the story of the monumental effort by family and friends to free Ray Krone, it is a penetrating indictment of an unfair justice system administered in large measure by a clique of individuals who play he justice game to win, not to discover the truth. With honesty, wit and a genius for interweaving story and brief, Jim Rix tells a no-holes-barred tale a murder mystery, a courtroom drama, a strange verdict, a quest to make sense of it all and a righteous battle against injustice. You ll meet a remarkable defense attorney who knew what it took to free Ray Krone: We must find out who killed Kim Ancona and shove it up their ass with a hot poker.
