"No outside journalist can adequately report what happens inside death row or what it is like to live through thirty-three executions of people you know. Lyle C. May has spent more than twenty-five years of his life on North Carolina's congregate death row. May's grounded writings in Witness challenge the myths, misconceptions, and misinformation about the criminal legal system and death in prison.
