A TALE of 2 INJUSTICES By Maurice L. Harris On October 3, 2011, everyone in the U.S. awoke to wall-to-wall Mainstream Media's (MSM) broadcasting of the impending Amanda Knox appellate ruling. At issue, whether she received a fair trial, or not. At stake: freedom, or a possible life in an Italian prison.

PTSD and the Pyramid of Crime 
 "The Onset" The sun is setting on a hot midsummer L.A. afternoon, while a group of preteens linger around a friend's apartment building.
