DESCRIPTION:Bestselling author, trial attorney, and NBC News analyst Lisa Bloom reads 
 from and discusses her new book, "Suspicion Nation: The Inside Story of the 
 Trayvon Martin Injustice and Why We Continue to Repeat It"\n\nWhat went 
 wrong behind the scenes in the Trayvon Martin case? Why does America endure 
 so many tragic shootings like this one? These are the questions at the 
 heart of Suspicion Nation.\nBestselling author, trial attorney, and NBC 
 News analyst Lisa Bloom covered the murder trial and was appalled by what 
 she witnessed. Bloom now exposes the injustice, conducting new in-depth 
 interviews with key trial participants and digging deeper into the 
 evidence. Suspicion Nation outlines the six biggest mistakes made by the 
 state of Florida that guaranteed it would lose this “winnable case,” 
 and the laws and biases that created the conditions for this 
 tragedy.\n\nRead a transcript or Listen to an mp3 audio of Michael Slate 
 interviewing Lisa Bloom on March 28, 2014 on the Los Angeles Pacifica 
 affiliate KPFK. Lisa Bloom says: "I think that fifty years from now, people 
 are going to look at this case as the Emmett Till case of the early 21st 
 century."\n\n\nThe only nonwhite juror tells her story of painful isolation 
 in the jury room. Rachel Jeantel, the state's star witness, reveals how 
 poorly the state prepared her to testify and what went through her mind on 
 the stand. The medical examiner reveals scientific evidence he wasn’t 
 allowed to present. And a new examination of Trayvon's school suspensions 
 raises questions about racial profiling, all in a country divided over 
 issues of race, gun laws, and violence. Suspicion Nation is a riveting 
 courtroom drama that shines a bright light on a case we only thought we 
 knew.\n https://www.indybay.org/newsitems/2014/10/12/18762763.php
