Why Just Her?

Why Just Her" identifies the external and internal demons that drove the D.C. Madam, Deborah Jeane Palfrey, from an initially defiant woman willing to fight the government to a woman so despairing as to take her own life prior to sentencing upon her conviction for Prostitution Racketeering. Starting with the execution of search on her home and seizure warrants for her bank accounts in October 2006 through her death on May 1, 2008, the book traces Jeane's final 20 months as the judicial system time and again failed to live up to its promise to insure 'justice'. Instead, unwittingly sitting atop a client list of the most powerful men in the world, that system made sure that Jeane's story would never be fully told.
