This book shatters the illusion that our laws are equally applied to all and that the population is protected by its police force. This is a very disturbing commentary on life in Louisiana and America. Although I live in a neighboring state to Louisiana, after reading this, I don't ever plan to travel there again.
This book highlights how some parishes in Louisiana prey upon out-of-state visitors; take drugs away from drug rings and allow police to resell them for personal gain. There is no justice for those murdered within these same parishes (counties). As a reader of this true crime expose', I felt enraged much of the time. The frightening thing is that the FBI and/or state authorities seemed unable or unwilling to step in and clean things out.
This book recounts the deaths of 8 women from the Jefferson Davis Parish in four short years. Not one person has been convicted of any of the murders.
I haven't decided if Ethan Brown is fool hearty or a hero for these times; he's been clearly warned against printing the book. As he is a native of New Orleans, I don't think there is enough real estate between him and the bad guys of Jefferson Davis Parish.
This is obviously a well-researched work worthy of a reader's time. It is also a disturbing study of contemporary law and justice in Louisiana.
