The Notable Trials Library, 1992. Bryson, John. Evil Angels. New York: Summit Books, [1985]. 560 pp. Introduction by Alan M. Dershowitz. Reprinted The Notable Trials Library, [1992]. Quarter-calf, gilt, raised bands, marbled endpapers, edges gilt, ribbon marker. Internally clean. A fine copy. $15. * The dramatic true story of a mother's worst nightmare and the murder trial that shocked Australia. On a camping trip at Ayer's Rock, the Chamberlain family's infant daughter disappeared in the middle of the night. Her distraught mother, Lindy, claimed she saw a dingo carry her off into the Australian outback. Two years later, their tragedy worsened when, without a murder weapon, a body, or even a motive, a jury convicted Lindy Chamberlain of killing her own daughter. The public cheered. John Bryson, a trial lawyer and award-winning journalist, deconstructs the factors that led to a seemingly reasonless incarceration and the public attitude that demanded it. With this book, he began to sway popular opinion in the Chamberlains' favor by discussing the failures on the part of the police, forensics team, and press. (Librarything).
