Victims
"Joseph Brown confessed to a
burglary
he committed with an accomplice,
who got
even by
accusing Brown of a murder.
Brown
was convicted and sentenced
to die,
although the accomplice
failed a polygraph test and
admitted
he lied. Brown, who came within
hours
of execution, was
released after 13 years on death
row,
from a chapter on victims of
punishment.
"It was a pretty rough time
and we prayed
that Yusuf would be found alive.
Eighteen
days after he
disappeared, they found his
body..
in an abandoned school. After
the funeral,
I was still in shock
and not wanting to believe that
my Yusuf
would never again put his arm
around my neck, from a
mothers story about her murdered
son.
This thought provoking collection
