A Wilderness of Error: The Trials of Jeffrey MacDonald | 
This true crime book by one of my favorite documentary filmmakers is still on my TBR, but I hope to read it sooner rather than later! Morris knows a thing or two about wrongful convictions. His '88 documentary Thin Blue Line was instrumental in overturning the wrongful conviction of Randall Adams.

pick1st book finished #24B4Monday I can see why Morris would be obsessed w/ this case.Jeffrey McDonald.
He‘s a doctor , a Green Beret.Lovely wife , 2 kids .2/17/70 Jeffrey calls for help.MPs arrive to find a horrible scene , Jeff wounded , his family,dead.
He accused a band of hippies, this is just after Manson, Pig is written on the headboard.Was the crime scene secured? Did a narrative of McDonalds guilt influence all aspects of the case?🔽
It‘s a little creepy when your borrowed library murder book has red stains in it.😬😱😳😄
Anyone watch Errol Morris' Netflix docuseries "Wormwood"? I found it to be compelling, if a bit in need of editing.
The library has a true crime display, naturally I browsed the titles & I ended up checking out these two. I was unaware of the Errol Morris book. One of the greatest documentary filmmakers, Morris is no amateur when it comes to crime. His 1988 film "The Thin Blue Line" resulted in the subject's exoneration. The Devil's Ticket features the following sentence in Erik Larson's blurb, "Bridge and murder, two of mankind's most engrossing pursuits."
