Go back to the place you know, do good, stay out of trouble. Not easy for this lawyer.

Carla's story

- Who does homework when there are parties to go to? Who cares about detention? And you can breeze your way through ‘anger management’. Just tell them what they want to hear.

Albie Sheets' story

- After I pulled it tight round his neck, the hose looked like a nice necklace. He’d have liked it too, only he never woke up.

Bell Elkins' story

- I know what it’s like to have a trailer for a home and how tough family life can be when there’s nowhere to turn.

Nick Fogelsong's story

- I have been her keeper for as long as I can remember. She won’t thank me for saying it, but sometimes things are best left to sort themselves out for a while. Not these murders, though. They are vicious.

Ruth Cox's story

- Carla had been through an experience that no child should have to endure. Anything I could do to help Bell and her daughter was the least of it.
