Apparently the plaintiffs do not like the way they were portrayed. Sometimes the truth hurts. They did pursue innocent men.
"Novelist John Grisham has been named in a libel lawsuit filed over The Innocent Man, a nonfiction best-seller he wrote about the 1982 murder of a cocktail waitress.
The suit, filed Friday in U.S. District Court, named several other defendants including Robert Mayer of Santa Fe, author of a similar true-crime book, The Dreams of Ada, published in 1987. The suit seeks relief of more than $75,000 and demands a jury trial. The plaintiffs are Pontotoc County District Attorney Bill Peterson and Gary Rogers, a former agent for the Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation." |Read more|
