This book is also appropriate reading material that is useful for law and criminal justice programs. Students at the undergraduate, and graduate levels in college may benefit by analyzing how the criminal justice system has failed in the California court case and by using the information gained to devise successful changes in the criminal justice process to eliminate failure and prevent abuse of power in the system. The Constitution and the Bill of Rights does not do what it was intended to do when the authorities and professionals who are entrusted to uphold the law abuse their power. This court case is the perfect example of how the Constitution and the Bill of Rights have been abused in the 20th Century when it is ignored and becomes ineffective in our criminal justice system. "A Fadeaway Dream of Justice to Redeem" is a useful tool to stimulate law students to ponder solutions to improve the criminal justice system to insure that the due process of law works for the benefit of not only for the rich, but equally for the poor as well - that there may be justice for all defendants. Get court smart for justice to prevail. Writer's Digest, 2000 This mystery/poetry book is a very interesting concept for a book. Quite a feat of rhyme. Well done! Richard O.
