Product description...

A Revelation of Tyranny: How Law Enforcement and the Judicial System is Defaming the Constitution to Invoke a False Sense of Justice.

A compelling true story about the potential for virtuosity to reclaim a sense of justice long ago lost and a strident overture to fix a dysfunctional, tainted conception of justice—from the eyes of a mother whose personal five-year journey takes her through an often exhausting and enigmatic judicial system.

J.K. Cook is a veteran nurse of twenty-three-plus years with an extensive work history in the mental health realm of health care. For a combined total of over fourteen years she worked with incarcerated individuals and listened to their stories, all the while thinking they were manipulative, dishonest, and culpable people. At the time, and until her own son was thrown into a labyrinthine justice system, she did not understand or realize how tainted the American system of justice is. Riddled with police coercion, illegal police tactics, ineffective counsel, drug court injustices, and an endless money pit involved with bringing about a defense for a defendant—innocent or guilty—habitually accepted nationwide, the current justice system violates a defendant’s constitutional rights and freedom daily. Her son’s multiple encounters with law enforcement and her epic struggles with the court system to fight for her son’s civil rights plunged J.K. Cook into a legal conglomeration hinged on provincial politics, money lust, and biased “Drug War” statistics.

Justice by Deception is a monumental affirmation of an optimistic young boy searching for masculinity who suddenly finds himself and his mother tormented and trapped in an often corrupt and unjust small, town legal system, and an exhilarating petition for benevolence in the procurement of genuine and accurate justice.

Author Information...

J. K. CookJ.K. Cook is an experienced nurse of twenty-three-plus years and a mother of two who resides in a small town in Alabama. She completed her Bachelor of Science degree in nursing in 2017 and is passionate about mental health, particularly defending the injustices in our current judicial system as it relates to mental health and drug addiction. The majority of her nursing career has revolved around the mental health aspect of health care, including working at Limestone Correctional Facility for approximately eight years, in various jails across the states of Alabama, Mississippi, and Louisiana for six years, at a geriatric behavioral health facility for approximately five years and currently continues to work in mental health as a nurse in an adult psychiatric hospital. While navigating an often arduous and abstruse judicial system for five years with her son, she became well-versed—from a mother’s, as well as an insider’s perspective—on how the American Judicial System currently operates.
