No Crime But Prejudice
What happens to the lives of the innocent when prosecutors abuse their power to further their careers or cater to political expediency? Think of the Duke lacrosse fiasco, the corruption case against former Alaska Senator Ted Stevens, or the prosecution of the former Arthur Andersen.

The Fischer Homes case is yet another striking example of the politics of prosecution—of how and why the government targets individuals and corporations, sometimes recklessly.
The Fischer Homes case is yet another striking example of the politics of prosecution and how and why the government targets individuals and corporations, sometimes recklessly. No Crime But Prejudice documents the Fischer Home case, from a blustery day in January 2006, when the federal government staged its sting operation, until the case was effectively dropped in the spring of 2009.
