A prisoner's account of a contested conviction

Ira Leon presents his own account of a life sentence imposed when he was 19, centering the book on his claim that he was wrongly convicted of murder. The publisher description says the narrative draws on court documents and allegations of falsified reports, withheld witness statements, and tampered evidence. It also identifies felony murder as part of the case and says documents were hidden from Leon for 17 years. The book is framed as a personal account of incarceration and a challenge to the handling of his case, with its claims grounded in the author’s perspective and the materials it presents.

Book overview

An insignificant life? This true story takes you on a journey with Ira Richard Leon- a man whose life was taken away by the corrupt actions of a heartless District Attorney.

Bent on imposing his own version of justice on an innocent man, the District Attorney has made Ira the victim of a system that is guilty of falsifying police reports, withholding witness statements that prove Ira is innocent, as well as tampering with evidence at a crime scene... and the dirty police department willingly helped him secure a cruel and unusual conviction.

Since 1992, Ira has been serving a life sentence for a murder he did not commit. He was only 19 years old.

Herein you will discover facts that depict how Ira's life was stolen from him. You will view first hand real court documents that were falsified by the District Attorney and hidden from Ira for 17 years!

Learning how the District Attorney hid this evidence from Ira in order to convict him of the archaic "felony murder" law will hit you so powerfully that you will demand answers... real justice... because no life, no matter how great, or small, is insignificant.
