The Legal News

Most people recognize the name John Grisham. The name is synonymous with legal fiction thrillers.

Interestingly his name is associated with the legal, this time he is the one in court. Seems he is being sued for libel due to his first non-fiction legal book “The Innocent Man”.

John Grisham is being sued along with a couple of other people. He is being sued by a prosecutor and a law enforcement officer over 3 books about a pair of murders that occurred many years ago. The two defendants were found innocent by DNA after 11 years in prison, with one being on death row.

The prosecuter and the police officer say their proffessional carreers have been ruined, and that the defendants conspired to ruin them. ( Wait a minute! They are ok with the fact that they ruined 2 innocent people’s lives?! One was to be EXECUTED!)
