You Go Girl | Customer Rating: | | IF I ever had to be on trial, Nancy Grace is the one I'd like in my corner! As I write this, she's already gotten married and given birth to her 2 children and if anyone deserves happiness,it's her. May God bless you and your new family! I'm proud to say you are from my home state and home town-I'm from Macon also. | very well written | Customer Rating: | Yes, Nancy Grace is loud and over-opinionated (that's what I love about her!) But she is also very passionate and thought-provoking. As a faithful viewer of her TV show, I decided to pick up this book to learn a little more about her. The book is a lot like I expected it to be. Nancy does not mince words and is never a shrinking violet. She is for the victims, totally. Personally, I do not share a lot of her politics, however I have always been the type of person who can celebrate the differences in others. Nancy is an accomplished journalist, not to mention attorney. If you have any interest in the legal system and want to know how to be proactive (not reactive) than this book is for you.
I can't wait for Nancy to come back to her show, she is much missed! My only complaint about her show is that miserable witch, Susan Moss; going by the bogus title as "family law advocate." This woman trolls many tabloid cable news shows (and is on Nancy's show just about every night) but never has anything productive to add because she is always in a hysterical rage. This woman acts extremely vengeful. Back in Sept. when O.J. was arrested in Las Vegas Susan Moss made a very ugly and ignorant comment that is harmful and offensive to all Americans, especially Black-Americans. Susan Moss said, "the Juice deserves the noose." (Not that it should matter,) I am no fan of O.J., but this was a blatantly bigoted comment that flew over everyone's heads. I'm surprised Al Sharpton didn't say anything to Susan Moss? Incidentally, Headline News' (the cable channel that produces Nancy's nightly talk show) parent-company CNN, produced a documentary about the relevance and racist undercurrents of nooses among African-Americans. And, this past year the issues of nooses was a very hot issue that was brought to the forefront when the MSM reported that multiple African-American people were threatened in this cowardice manner. So, I am astonished that no one said "boo" to Susan Moss about her disgusting comment. Why is Susan Moss allowed to get away with this blatant act of bigoted hate-speech on coast-to-coast American TV...? As far as I'm concerned this is just poison. And, why didn't Nancy call her on it yet? And, why didn't anyone else call her on it...? By saying nothing, society is condoning this act of hate and conveying that this type of behavior is acceptable. | Taking on the liberal justice system! | Customer Rating: | | Nancy Grace takes on our liberal, soft on crime, pro criminal, anti victim justice system and she takes them on hard and she is holding nothing back! If you are a Nancy Grace fan you will love this book! Nancy Grace at her BEST! | OUR CRIMINAL JUSTICE SYSTEM IS FOR SALE | Customer Rating: | | This is one amazing woman. The story about how she became a lawyer is nothing short of awe inspiring. And the stories in the court room will make you cringe and maybe even cry. And then there's the stories of the high profile celebrities who walked after they murdered. Very disconcerting and nauseous. | Disappointing. | Customer Rating: | Pandering.
Easy read though. As she implicitly acknowledges in every chapter of this book, she's a prime example of what she's criticizing.
She also appears to be intellectually dishonest and does not respect the legal system. Her tirades (and "tirades" is fairly accurate) against high priced defense attorneys (easy target, everybody hates them, right? me too) are quite simplistic for what I'd expect from a former prosecutor.
I can't believe that a person who comes across as a fairly average thinker, and a zealot, somehow managed to achieve a 100% conviction rate, without bending the rules a LOT.
Still, not a bad read. Burned through it very fast.
I would have given it 2 stars, until I found out there were sections in the book plagiarized. An former officer of the court who steals intellectual property, that deserves a ZERO. |
