Badge of Betrayal

I was blessed to have been able to go to school with the victim and deeply affected as I watched the events of the tragedy unfold. I admit, I caught myself being critical, checking to insure the authors were true to the story. Through many tears I found that they accomplished the difficult job of trying to infuse the human drama into what could have been pages spent explaining legal manuevering and evidence collecting technique. Although some might think the book looses it's place as a unbiased documention of the case and legal proceeding because of the "too good to be human" portrayment of the Knott family, believe it or not, they were holding back.This book is a MUST READ. It delivers in showing how people with charactor and courage during their darkest hours honored their precious daughter by focusing on the changes that needed to be made in order for our families to be safe. The court did not serve justice with it's sentencing, our authors do if just one person is safer because the Knotts dared to question the establishment, and Cara was memorialized to the world as she deserved.
