Great profile this morning of @amyhelenbell’s new book Life Sentence. I picked up a copy last week and could not put it down. I strongly recommend, if you are interested in the history of criminal justice in Canada & especially the role of defence lawyers & #legalaid

The amazing @amyhelenbell ! Can’t wait to get a copy of Life Sentence: How My Father Defended Two Murders and Lost Himself. Buy it here: nimbus.ca/store/life-sen…
