A masterful examination of the pathetic rush to judgment in the Duke rape case. --John Grisham

The full story of the Duke Lacrosse case, by the authors who broke it

In this American tragedy, Stuart Taylor, Jr., and KC Johnson argue, law enforcement, a campaigning prosecutor, biased journalists, and left-leaning academics repeatedly refused to pursue the truth while scapegoats were made of these young men, recklessly tarnishing their lives.
Until Proven Innocent is the only book that covers all five aspects of the case (personal, legal, academic, political, and media) in a comprehensive fashion. It is also the only book to include interviews with all three of the defendants, their families, and their legal teams. And now it includes an up-to-date epilogue detailing the aftershocks and conclusion of the case.
Taylor and Johnson's coverage of the Duke case was the earliest, most honest, and most comprehensive in the country, and here they take on the idiocies and dishonesty of right- and left-wingers alike, shedding new light on the danger of a cultural tendency toward media-fueled travesties of justice. The context of the Duke case has vast import, and in its full telling, it is captivating nonfiction with broad political, racial, and cultural relevance to our times.

Taylor and Johnson have made a gripping contribution to the literature of the wrongly accused. --The New York Times Book Review

Until Proven Innocent is a stunning book. --The Wall Street Journal

Vivid, at times chilling . . . their most biting scorn is aimed at the 'academic McCarthyism' that they say has infected top-rate American universities like Duke. --Newsweek

A superb new book . . . a book that not only reads like a legal thriller, but also exposes deep problems with America's legal system and academic culture. --The Economist

Great option for a professional looking backdrop
Color: Black, Size: B-102''-3 Panel
I decided to try these wall dividers for my home office space since it does not have a door. I wanted to have my video calls without the rest of the room in the feed to give it a more professional feel. These being on castors make them super easy to move into position and roll off to the side when not in use. They are stable, much more than the folding screens I have tried in the past. That they are connected by the middle piece and not the top/bottom of each other allows you to adjust the positioning to your needs. Overall, this did exactly what I needed and was an affordable option. I also like that they are highly portable: if you want to take them for a booth or event, the poles all disassemble into manageable lengths that easily fit in a car and take very little time to set up again. The only thing I would change is to include a bag to store them in for transportation.

Good value for the money.
Color: Black, Size: 6 Panel
This partition package is a great value. I looked at many options and this one had long length to cover an entire room with the six partitions. The pieces went together easily, took about 30 minutes to assemble and has the needed Allen wrench included. It is stable with no fear of being easily knocked down. The black fabric does not completely hide everything and if there is a light on the inside, it can illuminate what is going on. It does the job but if you wanted complete privacy you would need thicker material. Overall it does what I need in that it make a TV room into a kind of guest room of sorts.

Worked amazing during christmas
Color: Black, Size: 6 Panel
We had a ton of people over for Christmas so I had to make an extra place for someone to sleep so I used these and surrounded an air mattress and made a small shelter basically. The dividers are light but sturdy , not heavy duty of course but not expected for this price. They do an excellent job of blocking out light and are not see thru and worked very well. Assembly was straight forward and even comes with an included wrench but I used my own to speed the process. 100% satisfied

Satisfactory
Color: Black, Size: 6 Panel
Everything was advertised. But the box it was shipped in was torn up pretty bad and taped up to compensate. Nevertheless, the product itself was not damaged.

Easy to use.
Color: Grey, Size: 6 Panel
These are easy to put together and to use. We have used them with all the panels. We have also used them broke down into 2 and 3 panels. They work well for blocking views. They don't block noise or help quiet the room being used, however. Only bad thing about them. We use them for our Auxiliary meetings.
