By Tom Stickrath, J.D.
The longest prison riot with deaths in U.S. history; the biggest murder investigation in Ohio history; fifteen prisoner executions; juvenile justice reform; forensic DNA testing advancements; the pandemic; post-George Floyd civil unrest: the political landscape of six governors; all this and more in this fascinating memoir from Tom Stickrath. His provocative book is a mix of interesting, humorous, and sometimes somber behind the scenes accounts of his time with governors and first ladies, his interactions with notable inmates and celebrities, the experience of managing large public safety agencies, his oversight of complex criminal investigations, the overhaul of the state crime lab, and the public safety response to the pandemic.
