Overview

In June, 1983, Dennis Stockton entered death row in Virginia's state penitentiary, convicted of a murder he insisted he had not committed, For the next 12 years he remained there, during which time he helped plan the only successful mass escape from death row in U.S. history, developed a career as a writer through a diary & newspaper columns, & continually proclaimed his innocence. His explosive diary entries--published in the Virginian Pilot--about life on death row made him a marked man among prisoners & guards alike; this calumny only strengthened his resolve to clear his name. However, despite strong evidence of his innocence, Stockton was executed on September 27, 1995. Dead Run is the stunning story of Dennis Stockton's life in "the monster factory," his name for death row. Written by his editor at the Virginian Pilot & the reporter who investigated his claims of innocence, it is a riveting true-life thriller & essential reading for anyone with an opinion on the death penalty.
