In 1981, two teenagers raped and murdered a 12-year-old girl in Maple Street Park. In 1982, two men bludgeoned a rowdy bar patron and left him for dead in the Winooski River. In Barre, a man pleaded insanity after fatally shooting his downstairs neighbor because he \"always had it in his head to kill someone.\" Simpson details the prosecutions of a pedophilic priest, a violent cult, a cleaver-wielding assailant, and other brutal and tragic offenders who brought incalculable pain and suffering to their communities. Amongst all these devastating stories, however, is the one of hope: Vermont juries delivering justice and shaping the system we rely on today.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-12637313\"\u003eBob Simpson\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Onion River Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/24\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 252\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.75lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.57d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781966607069\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1966607067\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBISAC Categories:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-BIO\"\u003eBiography \u0026amp; Autobiography\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-BIO020000\"\u003eLawyers \u0026amp; Judges\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Onion River Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48457757753581,"sku":"9781966607069","price":17.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/8097\/6621\/files\/img_83d99d27-a375-4c5a-adf5-5fed4fe4cee3.jpg?v=1753588063","url":"https:\/\/sureshotbooks.com\/products\/small-town-prosecutor-trials-of-killers-con-men-and-a-priest-9781966607069","provider":"SureShot Books Publishing LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
