America's premier forensic pathologist has written his most eye-opening book yet as he illumines the most shocking crimes and spellbinding trials of our time. Without fear or favor, Cyril Wecht, M.D., J.D., reveals his professional involvement and judgment in such celebrated cases as:

• The murders of Nicole Simpson and Ronald Goldman, including full analyses of the forensic evidence, assessments of both the prosecution and defense strategies, and new insight into the guilt or innocence of O.J. Simpson.
• The Great Waco showdown, examining the evidence to determine whether the government assault and subsequent raging inferno were the only causes of death for the scores of men, women, and children of the Branch Davidian cult.
• The Chicago Black Panther shoot-out, cutting through layers of police propaganda and conspiracy theories to find out if black nationalist Fred Hampton was gunned down in cold blood.

These are just three of the fourteen extraordinary true dramas that come to life in these pages.
