Publisher's Synopsis
Lothar R. Genge has authored an easy to read, compelling, account of his life as a prosecutor. The book provides the reader with a rare glimpse into the intricacies of state and federal prosecutorial systems and reveals quirks of fate that often served as the basis for some of America's most fascinating prosecutions. For example, a passenger already seated on board a plane at London's Heathrow Airport about to depart for Paris, decides to momentarily disembark to get a newspaper. As a direct result of this seemingly inconsequential act, the former Head of the Florida Marine Patrol, three prominent Miami/Fort Lauderdale attorneys, an Indianapolis 500 Rookie of the Year, and thirteen drug dealers all land in South Florida jails. The passenger himself ended up on Florida's death row. All names, events and trials cited in this book are real. They are referenced in state and federal court records, newspaper publications and other public records.
