Riassunto:

How do you prosecute a serial killer whose last victim was never found? Can a fleeing felon be charged with murdering a police officer he never met and was killed two miles away? Why was District Attorney Benjamin David called to the White House to address ending mass incarceration in America while lowering the crime rate at the same time?

Crime and Community in the Cape Fear: A Prosecutor's Guide to a Healthier Hometown answers these questions and guides readers through two decades of famous and influential legal cases. This is a first-person account of the elected district attorney and presents key decisions that have shaped legal precedent. The book also demonstrates how citizens in any part of the country can apply legal principles to build community and foster healthier, happier, and safer hometowns.

Conversational, highly accessible, and an enjoyable read, Crime and Community in the Cape Fear is an exceptional resource for courses and programs in criminal justice, as well as any course that focuses on community solutions to prevent crime.
