Dragon on Centre Street : New York vs. Donald J. Trump / by Bromwich, Jonah, E.,author.;
Includes bibliographical references."In the spring of 2024, former President Trump, flanked by his band of loyal supporters, was shuttled daily into a gloomy Manhattan courtroom to face a trial with monumental stakes -- for him, and for the country. Inside, a cast of larger-than-life characters awaited: tabloid impresario David Pecker; mess-making "fixer" Michael Cohen; counterpunching porn star Stormy Daniels; an enigmatic district attorney and the no-nonsense judge tasked with keeping the trial moving -- and bringing Trump to heel. Each played a crucial part in a high-stakes legal drama with remarkable repercussions for American politics in the year of a historic election. New York Times journalist Jonah Bromwich was there, capturing every moment -- from the streets to the courtroom, to the back-office maneuvering. His daily reports gripped a global audience. Now, armed with new reporting and insider knowledge, Bromwich delivers the definitive account of this stranger-than-fiction showdown on Centre Street. Dragon on Centre Street is a gripping, absurd, and outrageous story of power, attention, and America's future. A must-read for anyone seeking to understand this defining moment in history -- and a political drama so wild, you'll have to remind yourself it's all true"--

Victim F : from crime victims to suspects to survivors / by Huskins, Denise,author.; Quinn, Aaron,author.; Egan, Nicole Weisensee,author.;
"The shocking true story of a bizarre kidnapping and the victims' revictimization by the justice system In March 2015, Denise Huskins and her boyfriend, Aaron Quinn, awoke from sound sleep to a nightmare. Armed men bound and drugged them, then abducted Denise and warned Aaron not to call the police or she would be killed. Aaron agonized about what to do. Finally he put his trust in law enforcement and dialed 911. But instead of searching for Denise, the police accused Aaron of her murder. His story, they told him, was just unbelievable. When Denise was let go, the police turned on her, dubbing her the "real-life Gone Girl," saying she had faked her own kidnapping. In Victim F, Aaron and Denise recount the horrific ordeal that almost cost them everything. Like too many victims of sexual violence, they were dismissed, disbelieved, and dragged through the mud. With no one to rely on except each other, they took on the victim blaming, harassment, misogyny, and abuse of power running rife in the criminal justice system. Their story is, in the end, a love story, but one that sheds necessary light on sexual assault and the abuse by law enforcement that all too frequently compounds crime victims' suffering"--
