Double jeopardy protects our citizens from malicious prosecution. But every now and then, the good guys lose. And the bad guy benefits from this protection we all enjoy. The Brenda Schaefer case is an extreme example of dedicated police work and earnest prosecution still losing to abject evil.

Special thank you to author Bob Hill. His book, Double Jeopardy, was an incredible resource in researching this case.
