The Fourteenth Juror - Hardcover

by Amy L. Sortino (Author)

The Fourteenth Juror is a raw, unflinching memoir of survival, trauma, and transformation. It's the story of a young woman navigating addiction, abuse, incarceration, and betrayal-and the long journey toward healing and advocacy.

But it's also a wake-up call: a piercing look at the carceral system's cruelty, the failures of mandatory sentencing, and the redemptive power our system refuses to recognize.

Amy invites readers to do more than bear witness. She asks us to confront the labels we've accepted, the policies we've ignored, and the people we've written off.

Because if justice means understanding, humanity, and change-

then maybe it's time we all stepped into the role of the Fourteenth Juror
