Free Choice/Nonfiction: Picking Cotton 1
I know the basic premise of this book. The woman was raped and identified a particular man as the culprit. He insisted he was innocent, but her testimony sent him to prison. Over a decade later, he took a DNA test that proved his claim, and he was released. Eventually, the two met and became friends. I'm definitely interested in this story because it's something that's been in the news on and off in recent years, popping up again every time someone proves their innocence of a crime they went to jail for. I think it's an interesting opportunity to find out more about a little-known story.
