I Also Can't Breathe: But This Jury Hangs (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Juror Five served on a three-week civil case in October 2020 that unearthed the story of a 27-year old man who died shortly after calling 911 because he couldn't breathe. The day before his death, he was treated at a Seattle-area urgent care facility for shortness of breath and sent home. The judicial system failed to deliver justice. This tragic, true narrative combines medical malpractice, pulmonary embolisms, organ donation, university medical systems, courtroom drama, juror reactions, an insight to the deliberation room, and the COVID-19 virus.

There is something for everyone in this book: Judges, trial lawyers, jury consultants will see the whole trial from a juror's perspective. Patients or their family members can put themselves in the jury's shoes before spending time, energy, and emotion suing for medical malpractice. Doctors and health care systems can appreciate how jurors react to trial strategies. Future jurors can learn what happens in a trial and avoid our mistakes. Researchers, law professors, and law students can inform research with this valuable and rare insight.

Autorenporträt

Galeeb is a third generation Kenyan of Indian descent who immigrated to the United States at the age of 16. He has lived and worked on both the east and west coasts of the U.S. as well as in Kenya and Pakistan. Throughout his 25+ year career, he has focused on serving humanity and on being a steward of the earth.

A dozen years working in international development (both for the U.S. Government and for a non-profit humanitarian agency) empowered him to help other people. Another dozen years in the environmental field has strengthened his sustainability skills. Together, these experiences have given him the insight to showcase how innovation and service go hand-in-hand.

Today, when he is not engaged in community service, or writing his next book, you can find him running the trails of the Seattle suburbs.
