Autorenporträt
Jana Guyewski-Lautigar is an elementary school teacher and social worker with a deep commitment to advocacy and justice. After the tragic and suspicious death of her sister, Crystal McCrory Jones, Jana refused to accept the official ruling and embarked on a relentless pursuit of truth. Through research, legal inquiries, and public advocacy, she has worked tirelessly to uncover the facts and demand accountability. With a background in education and social work, Jana understands the importance of amplifying the voices of those who have been silenced. Her firsthand experience navigating systemic challenges has fueled her passion for seeking justice-not only for Crystal but for all families who have been denied answers. Justice Denied is her first book-a powerful, deeply personal account of loss, resilience, and the fight for truth against a system that too often turns a blind eye.
