Spellbinding courtroom illustrations of the most celebrated and talked-about trials of the last 25 years, coupled with insider observations and case summaries. Sketches of OJ Simpson staring passively ahead while a projected image of his battered wife looms behind him and the parade of beautiful call girls present at the Heidi Fleiss trial are brought to life in 200 vividly coloured images. Courtroom commentary from the artist supplements the art from each trial, including highlights and lowlights, verdict summaries and reactions to the verdicts from trial participants.
