Book excerpt: Matthew Craig has made himself a powerful attorney in New York City. He has heard clients enter their plea thousands of times while standing in the courtroom. However, on this unforgettable night, he must enter a plea! He must face THE Judge in the highest court of all, and there are no attorneys, no legal loopholes to help him! The evidence against him is clear; it is all been recorded, and he cannot stop it! From Sunday mornings in church back home to his present reckless lifestyle. His life, his loves, his family.it's all there. "How Do You Plead" will take you on a trip through the life of one man and how it can affect the lives of others; but it could also be an insight to the life of anyone who has ever been born. "How Do You Plead" may just help you realize something in yourself! Mark Mayes grew up in the rural area of Gallipolis Ferry, West Virginia. He received his education in Point Pleasant, West Virginia, which had "some of the best teachers in the world!" After going to business school (for accounting) and honing his craft for two years, he then entered the restaurant management field, where he stayed for over seventeen years. He worked in several larger cities, exposing himself to their social, economic, and cultural environments. After health issues forced him to seek another career, he joined the administrative staff at his church, Fellowship Chapel, in Vinton, Ohio.another small rural area. By his admission, God used him in the food industry to develop the skills he would need for this position. When he's not busy with those duties, he's home working on his next literary project. Mark resides in Gallipolis, Ohio, with his wife, Tammie. This is Mark's first novel.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most people want to do the right thing. Often, clean living principles are confused with biblical principles. Almost everyone is aware of the famous Ten Commandments, but how many are aware there are actually 613 laws in the Old Testament, described in the Torah? Are these laws and commandments for all to obey? Who were they given to and for whom? What's the significance of the death and resurrection of Christ in relation to these laws? These are just a few questions you'll discover answers to right from the pages of your own bible. This study investigates biblical law and the correct application of God's grace in the life of the believer. Once again, Shane Turley takes the reader on a journey through scripture, unlocking word phrases and applying context to identify the true intentions of the scribes of the bible.

Book excerpt: A blistering critique of America’s assembly-line approach to criminal justice and the shameful practice at its core: the plea bargain Most Americans believe that the jury trial is the backbone of our criminal justice system. But in fact, the vast majority of cases never make it to trial: almost all criminal convictions are the result of a plea bargain, a deal made entirely out of the public eye. Law professor and civil rights lawyer Dan Canon argues that plea bargaining may swiftly dispose of cases, but it also fuels an unjust system. This practice produces a massive underclass of people who are restricted from voting, working, and otherwise participating in society. And while innocent people plead guilty to crimes they did not commit in exchange for lesser sentences, the truly guilty can get away with murder. With heart-wrenching stories, fierce urgency, and an insider’s perspective, Pleading Out exposes the ugly truth about what’s wrong with America’s criminal justice system today—and offers a prescription for meaningful change.

Book excerpt: “Rip-roaring legal thriller...Twisty, bloody, and convincing.” —Ian Rankin An innocent client. A wife in jeopardy. Who will take The Plea? When billionaire David Child is arrested for the murder of his girlfriend, Clara, the FBI believes they can get him to testify and take down a huge money laundering scheme. Con-artist-turned-lawyer Eddie Flynn is given the job: persuade David to plead guilty and give the agents the evidence they need. If Eddie can’t get David to take a plea bargain, the FBI has incriminating files on Eddie’s wife – and will send her to jail. But David swears he didn’t murder anyone. The evidence overwhelmingly shows that David killed Clara: the security video showed no one else entering their apartment, the murder weapon was in his car, and he was covered in gunshot residue he can’t explain. Yet as the FBI pressures Eddie to secure the guilty plea, Eddie becomes increasingly convinced that David is telling the truth. With adversaries threatening, Eddie has to find a way to prove David’s innocence and find out if there’s any way he might have been framed. But the stakes are high: Eddie’s wife is in danger. And not just from the FBI... The Plea is a locked room mystery from Steve Cavanagh, the author Nelson DeMille compares to John Grisham, Scott Turow, and Brad Meltzer. “The Plea is one of the most purely entertaining books you'll read this year. It's a blast.” —John Connolly, bestselling author of the Charlie Parker novels

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From a prominent criminal law professor, a provocative and timely exploration of how plea bargaining prevents true criminal justice reform and how we can fix it—now in paperback When Americans think of the criminal justice system, the image that comes to mind is a trial-a standard court­room scene with a defendant, attorneys, a judge, and most important, a jury. It's a fair assumption. The right to a trial by jury is enshrined in both the body of the Constitution and the Bill of Rights. It's supposed to be the foundation that undergirds our entire justice system. But in Punishment Without Trial: Why Plea Bargaining Is a Bad Deal, University of North Carolina law professor Carissa Byrne Hessick shows that the popular conception of a jury trial couldn't be further from reality. That bed­rock constitutional right has all but disappeared thanks to the unstoppable march of plea bargaining, which began to take hold during Prohibition and has skyrocketed since 1971, when it was affirmed as constitutional by the Supreme Court. Nearly every aspect of our criminal justice system encourages defendants-whether they're innocent or guilty-to take a plea deal. Punishment Without Trial showcases how plea bargaining has undermined justice at every turn and across socioeconomic and racial divides. It forces the hand of lawyers, judges, and defendants, turning our legal system into a ruthlessly efficient mass incarceration machine that is dogging our jails and pun­ishing citizens because it's the path of least resistance. Professor Hessick makes the case against plea bargaining as she illustrates how it has damaged our justice system while presenting an innovative set of reforms for how we can fix it. An impassioned, urgent argument about the future of criminal justice reform, Punishment Without Trial will change the way you view the criminal justice system.
