Outspoken and wildly popular Fox News commentator Judge Andrew Napolitano uses his vast experience and expertise to expose the rampant misuse and dangerous abuse of power in America’s criminal justice system.

In this alarming book, Judge Napolitano makes the solid case that there is a pernicious and ever-expanding pattern of government abuse in America’s criminal justice system, leading him to establish his general creed: “The government is not your friend.”

As an attorney, a law professor, a commentator, a judge, and now a successful television personality, Judge Napolitano has studied the system inside and out, and his unique voice has resonance and relevance. Whether in the big, headliner criminal cases or in the thousands of small-town trials no one ever hears about (but should), the police, the prosecutors, the politicians, the judges, and the machinery of government are inexorably grinding away at the individual liberties guaranteed to all Americans by the Constitution.

This book is divided into four sections: the first section, called Rights and Liberties, includes chapters such as “Attacking the Innocent,” “Creating Crime” and “Gagging Free Speech.” This shows how the system is eroding our rights as American citizens. Part two, Wake-Up Call, is the personal odyssey of Judge Napolitano. Napolitano includes a controversial section titled The War on Terror. In this section, he expounds on the terror tactics of the Justice Department, using shocking insider information and research. Lastly, in a section called Prospects for Liberty, Napolitano explains what we can do to survive this assault within our criminal justice system.

In this sensational book, Napolitano sets the record straight, speaking frankly from his own experiences and thorough investigation, and revealing how government agencies will often arrest without warrant, spy without legal authority, imprison without charge, and kill without cause.
