Murdering Myths is written by Judith W. Kay and published by Bloomsbury Publishing PLC. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 0742523365 (ISBN 10) and 9780742523364 (ISBN 13).
In Murdering Myths: The Story Behind the Death Penalty, Judith Kay goes beyond the hype and statistics to examine Americans' deep-seated beliefs about crime and punishment. She argues that Americans share a counter-productive idea of justice--that punishment corrects bad behavior, suffering pays for wrong deeds, and victims' desire for revenge is natural and inevitable. Drawing on interviews with both victims and inmates, Kay shows how this belief harms perpetrators, victims, and society and calls for a new narrative that recognizes the humanity in all of us.
