In Spite of the System: A Personal Story of Wrongful Conviction and Exoneration By Gary Gauger and Julie Von Bergen
|
Gary has been interviewed on The Oprah Winfrey Show, 60 Minutes, 20/20, CNN Tonight with Connie
Chung, A&E Investigative Reports, and Court TV. He has been the subject of numerous print
interviews in the U.S. and overseas, and is one of six former death row inmates profiled in the
acclaimed play, The Exonerated.
Gary tells his complete, first-person story in In Spite of the System.
For most of his life, organic farmer Gary Gauger figured the police caught the bad guys, the
prosecution gathered all the evidence, and the courts made sure only guilty people went to prison.
That all changed on April 8, 1993, the day his parents were brutally murdered on their Illinois farm.
Arrested the next day for the crimes, Gary was sentenced to death and spent the next six years
trying to clear his name.
