(B&W photographs) INSCRIBED and SIGNED by the primary author (Callahan) on the title page. In his first assignment as Investigations Commander for a nine-county area in East-Central Illinois, the author reviewed a 14-year-old murder case. The investigation changed his life, as it led to a (successful) years-long fight to free the two innocent men who had been wrongfully convicted of the crime -- a fight that also exposed "the corrupt administration of [Illinois] Governor George Ryan and the politically compromised command of the Illinois State Police." The case was the subject of a 2015 episode of the CNN documentary series "Death Row Stories," entitled "Murder in Paris," in which Callahan appeared along with other major figures in the case (including one of the exonerated men). ****NOTE that additional postage charges will be assessed for international shipping of this moderately heavy book; if this concerns you, please contact us for a shipping quote before placing your order.**** Signed by Author.
