AFRICAN AMERICAN PROSE Illegal
Justice II The Bailey's were a prominent African-American family from Queens, New York. The Reverend Bailey was a respected minister who had strong political contacts. One day his seventy-one-year-old wife, Ann, who happened to be diabetic, was driving along Queens Boulevard when she began to feel dizzy. She pulled her car to the side of the road and began to eat some peanuts. Three cops, including Arlene Harrison, thought she was swallowing drugs in an attempt to hide them. The police officers said that she resisted their attempt to arrest her. They brutalized her. Their actions culminated in her death from heart failure while handcuffed to a hospital bed. L. Lawrence takes an unflinching look at the subject of police brutality and racial profiling in the riveting two-book series, Illegal Justice© & Illegal Justice II - The Investigation©. They are compelling works of fiction that are not for the squeamish, as Lawrence blurs the line between fantasy and reality. Illegal-Justice is a provocative and gripping book that will haunt you for months to come. To learn more and to order, please visit our web site BooksUnpublished.com.
