The Prosecution of George W Bush for Murder: 0

The most explosive and controversial book of the year by famed prosecutor and No. 1 "New York Times" bestselling author Vincent Bugliosi. "The Prosecution of George W. Bush for Murder" hit the "NYT" bestseller list on publication in the US in June 2008 with a massive media campaign.Famed Charles Manson prosecutor and three times No. 1 "New York Times" bestselling author Vincent Bugliosi has written the most important and thought provoking book of his career. In a meticulously researched and clearly presented legal case that puts George W. Bush on trial for murder after he leaves his Presidency, Bugliosi delivers a searing indictment of the President and his administration. With what he believes is overwhelming evidence that President Bush started the war in Iraq under false pretences - a war that has caused great loss of life, cost close to $1 trillion, and alienated most of the world - Bugliosi argues that it is George W. Bush who must be held accountable for what he considers to be monumental crimes.In this ground-breaking book, Bugliosi, in his inimitable style, presents a powerful case against the man in the oval office, who he feels has yet to be brought to justice.

Vincent Bugliosi received his law degree in 1964. In his career at the L.A. County District Attorney's office, he successfully prosecuted 105 out of 106 felony jury trials, including 21 murder convictions without a single loss. His most famous trial, the Charles Manson case, became the basis of his classic, Helter Skelter, the biggest selling true-crime book in publishing history. Two of Bugliosi's other books - And the Sea Will Tell and Outrage - also reached No. 1 on the New York Times hardcover bestseller list. No other American true-crime writer has ever had more than one book that achieved this ranking. His latest book, Reclaiming History: The Assassination of President John F. Kennedy, has been heralded as epic and a book for the ages. HBO, in association with Tom Hanks' PlayTone Productions, will be producing this as a ten hour mini-series. Bugliosi's excellence as a trial lawyer is best captured in the judgment of his peers. "Bugliosi is as good a prosecutor as there ever was," Alan Dershowitz says. F. Lee Bailey calls Bugliosi "the quintessential prosecutor." "There is only one Vince Bugliosi. He's the best," says Robert Tanenbaum, for years the top homicide prosecutor in the Manhattan D.A.'s office. Most telling is the comment by Gerry Spence, who squared off against Bugliosi in a twenty-one-hour televised, scriptless "docu-trial" of Lee Harvey Oswald with the original key witnesses. After the Dallas jury returned a guilty verdict in Bugliosi's favour, Spence said, "No other lawyer in America could have done what Vince did in this case." www.prosecutionofbush.com
