A predator is set loose. A system is manipulated. A catastrophe that could have been prevented. Ashley Stevens, at 17 years old, thought justice would be done when she named Wayne Dumond as the guy who had abducted and sexually assaulted her in 1984. She was unaware that her horror was only getting started. Dumond was a vicious serial predator with a troubling past of assault and homicide, not just another criminal. However, a complex network of deceit, manipulation, and influence freed him from prison. After being freed, he struck once more, ruthlessly killing two more ladies in the process. Investigative writer D.R. Bartlette tells the terrifying true story of how a monster was able to escape punishment due to a corrupt legal system, political ambition, and conspiracy theories. In THE DUMOND AFFAIR: How Lies And Politics Freed a Killer, through exclusive interviews and compelling details Bartlette shows the terrible truth behind one of the most startling miscarriages of justice in American history, exposing the failures that cost innocent lives. Not only is this a true crime story, but it also serves as a warning about influence, power, and the fatal results of making a mistake.
Autorenporträt
As the weird kid who hung out in the library and had my nose in a book all the time, I fell in love with words at an early age. I always knew I was going to be a writer.Then, when I was about eight, my Nana introduced me to a show called Quincy, M.E., which sparked my fascination with forensic crime shows. The evolution into true crime was a natural progression of my morbid curiosity.I followed my passion for writing by earning a bachelor's, then a master's, in journalism. As a freelancer, I've written dozens of articles and essays from topics ranging from school lunches to the study of human decomposition - the weirder, the better. I was a regular writer on Medium.com for a few years, often earning Top Writer status in both the History and True Crime genres.I never tire of learning and writing about true crime, where I can explore the theme of justice - who gets it and who doesn't, and why.I live in my hometown of Fayetteville, Arkansas, where I also host a true crime show on YouTube, The Murder Nerd. And still hang out in the library for fun.
