The Tragedy of True Crime Quotes

“What are the consequences of illuminating human darkness for entertainment? When we do this, are we hindering the progress of those who focus on criminal justice reform?

When lurid storytellers reach out to us a generation after we committed our crimes and seek to portray us as evil, killers, psychopaths, it mocks the idea at the center of criminal justice reform: Each of us is more than our crimes.”
― John J. Lennon, The Tragedy of True Crime: Four Guilty Men and the Stories That Define Us
