In 1984, John Thompson was convicted and sentenced to death for the murder of a prominent white man in New Orleans, Louisiana. He was sent to Angola Prison and confined to his cell for twenty-three hours a day. However, Thompson adamantly proclaimed his innocence and just needed lawyers who believed that his trial had been mishandled and would step up to the plate against the powerful DA’s office. But who would fight for Thompson’s innocence when he didn’t have an alibi for the night of the murder and there were two key witnesses to confirm his guilt? Killing Time is about the eighteen-year quest for Thompson’s freedom from a wrongful murder conviction. After Philadelphia lawyers Michael Banks and Gordon Cooney take on his case, they struggle to find areas of misconduct in his previous trials while grappling with their questions about Thompson’s innocence. John Hollway and Ronald M. Gauthier have interviewed Thompson and the lawyers, and paint a realistic and compelling portrait of life on death row and the corruption in the Louisiana police and DA’s office. When it is found that evidence was mishandled in a previous trial that led to his death sentence in the murder case, Thompson is finally on his road to freedom—a journey that continues with his suit against Harry Connick, Sr. and the New Orleans DA’s office to this day.

Keep your eyes on Ehrlich." —Courtney Summers, New York Times bestselling author of Sadie and The Project “Deathly smart, twisty, and at times wickedly funny, Killing Time is a pitch-perfect mystery.” - Kara Thomas, author of The Cheerleaders Summer in Ferry, Connecticut, has always meant long, lazy days at the beach and wild nights partying in the abandoned mansions on the edge of town.

This compelling investigation into the unsolved murders of Nicole Brown Simpson and Ronald Goldman focuses on the time-frame when the murders occurred - the "killing time", sometime between 10 PM and 11 PM, June 12, 1994. In a groundbreaking scientific forensic investigation, material from the crime scene is analyzed to produce different scenarios of the murders, each with its own timeline of evidence and players, some involving O. J. Simpson in the murders, some not. The narrative begins with a review of the trial, the evidence, and the partisan theories of the Prosecution and Defense; then moves minute-by-minute through new retellings of the murders. Woven throughout are interviews, explosive information, and signs of both conspiracy and cover-up, from what the lawyers didn't tell you and the press didn't report, to insights from a "deep throat" source within law enforcement, to evidence of organized crime in Brentwood. Only after you have considered all the scenarios will you be able to decide for yourself whether the case is open or closed. For those wanting to develop their own scenarios, new leads and a blank timeline are provided.
