Just Mercy is a call to fix the justice system has been broken from a prominent lawyer – Bryan Stevenson. He was a young lawyer creating the “Equal Justice Initiative” – a legal practice dedicated to protecting the most desperate and pitiful: the poor, the wrongly convicted, women and children in trouble with the criminal justice system. One of his first cases was Walter McMillian, a young man sentenced to death for a notorious murder. The case has drawn Bryan into a mess of conspiracy, political intrigue … and transforms his understanding of justice and mercy forever.
