Living Next Door to the Death House
Published in Hardcover by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing Co. (March, 2003)
Authors: David Clinton Owens and Virginia Stem Owens
Average review score:

Even-handed and helpful
I have just finished Living Next Door to the Death House and really appreciated the good writing. The book was excellent! It has been very helpful to me in my work as a Methodist pastor; during Advent I did a series of lectures on "tough issues" and thought that Homosexuality or separation of Church and State/Prayer in our schools would be the most passionate subjects, but I was amazed in that the Death Penalty was, by far, the most passionate and difficult for many. I have learned that I can talk about why I am against the Death Penalty, but I have not had a loved one murdered...... the stories I have heard from my members have humbled me and I continue to learn that this whole subject is very complex. This book takes so many of the sides and I found it to be very helpful. I will suggest it to my people here that are struggling. Again, I commend the Owenses for their excellent book.


Witness to an Execution
Published in Audio Cassette by Sound Portraits Productions (29 November, 2000)
Authors: Stacy Abramson and David Isay
Average review score:

Witness to an Execution
Witness to an Execution is a very powerful documentary that offers an unusual perspective on the controversial nature of capital punishment. Most people would not contemplate the impact of the death penalty on prison guards who execute the prisoners, reporters who cover the executions or spiritual guides who offer support to the prisoners in their final moments-- however, the moving testimonies provided by these witnesses forces us to re-consider the lasting (and in some cases detrimental) affects of the death penalty not only on the prisoners and their families but on all those involved in an execution.


By Two and Two: The Scandalous Story of Twin Sisters Accused of a Shocking Crime of Passion
Published in Hardcover by William Morrow (December, 1995)
Author: Jim Schutze
Average review score:

A skewed story
Just in case you think any of what this writer said is real, I'll bet you that most of it was lies.

Yes, Jack was murdered. Yes, the sisters were tried. The only injustice, however, is that Peggy wasn't found guilty.

You see, the lovely thing about tv shows and books is that they can skew reality into whatever they want them to say. They don't always show what REALLY happened.

You wanna know what REALLY happened with Jack, Peggy, James, and Betty? Why don't you read through The Huntsville Times for the past 10 years? I'll bet you didn't know that Betty Wilson had actually plotted to have Jack murdered at least once before.

Yes, James is a liar, but who knows? He could've actually been telling the truth.

I actually know one of the people who was a witness in the trial. I knew the victim (he was my family's eye doctor). I know what went on, and this book is an all-out lie.

A disturbing book about a miscarriage of justice
I like to read crime books in which, at the end, justice has been done, but such is not the case in Jim Schutze's *By Two and Two*. It tells the story of two Alabama sisters charged with conspiring to murder the husband of one of them. Although apparently neither woman was involved in the crime, one was found guilty and the other was not, because of personal, social and racial issues tangential to the case. In pursuing the investigation, well-meaning police were evidently manipulated and deceived by a career criminal who sought, and won, preferential treatment by helping them make a case against the women. The author himself was clearly disturbed by the outcome

Questions ?
I want to know some background on Betty and Peggy. Maiden name and parents, and siblings?? What city and state they were born in? childhood pictures?
