Scandal in the Courtroom, Found Guiltyu without Trial
America the Beautiful, God shed his grace on thee. I remember singing these words while my teacher played on the piano in our old two room school. I remember climbing the hill on our farm after school. Below me was our little hamlet of Copake, New York. I remember viewing the mountains across our little valley that was filled with lush crops. God did indeed shed his grace on America and she is indeed beautiful. That was how it was when I was growing up. America was at war. In far off Germany an evil man had come to power and had diverted the power of the German people to his own evil intent. He was defeated in the end and America was in its glory. I believed America could do no wrong.
A lot has happened since then. The Vietnam War is one such thing and perhaps the war in Iraq is another. Somehow our presidents led us into wars that were not our wars.
But on personal bases I have another story to tell of America going wrong. It is my story about our American court system and how I, a hard working farmer in Copake became involved. The story is called Scandal in the Courtroom, Found Guilty without Trial. There is much in the book about what it was like growing up in small town America with the stories I heard while growing up. Then there are the things that go wrong in Copake like the arsons. Copake truly had a very big problem. After the arsonist burned my third barn I found my son and myself very much involved in Copake’s problem. Because of what happened it seemed the problem was our problem and ours alone.
The reader can follow in my own words what I saw going on in our courts and can weight for them selves the actions taken against the action that should have been taken. Scandal in the Courtroom is about how our courts work, and not how we learned they work in school. Did I make mistakes? Yes I did, but the reader can read what others did too and judge their actions. Readers in Columbia County will remember many of the places and people. They will recall such events as when the Copake Theater burned. I believe it is a book you will enjoy for the humor, the mystery, the drama and the story.
