By Any Means Necessary: A Betrayal of Justice - Paperback

by Rebekah Thonginh Ross (Author)

This is the true story of a Texas CPS Investigator who was arrested in 2013 and charged with four counts of official oppression and one count of tampering with evidence. Though the story made national headlines, the media failed to ever explain what really happened. Rebekah had been arrested, and later convicted, for searching "too hard" to find a missing, drug-addicted infant. Rebekah tells her story as a mystery/drama and pulls you into the life of a CPS investigator caught in the grasp of a runaway criminal justice system fighting to overturn a wrongful conviction. "As a CPS investigator, my only goal was to find a missing baby. The drug-addicted parents were in hiding, and no one knew if the baby was dead or alive. Blood covered a mattress and dripped down the bedroom walls in their deserted home. Someone was dying, if they weren't dead already. Determined to find the baby before it's too late, I relied on my court orders and set upon a path that led to my unprecedented arrest and conviction. With the future safety of children and CPS investigators on the line, I appealed until my case was heard in the highest criminal court in Texas.For the first time, I reveal the details of the sensational cases the national news got wrong and how I fought for justice when all hope was lost."Includes bonus story about C.J.'s recovery.
