"John
Burrett
has
written a
book
proclaiming
his
innocence,
and
accusing a
High Court
judge of
`trumping
up'
evidence.
Such
an
outlandish
crime was
always
going to
make an
intriguing
book."
Emily
Watt the
Dominion

About
the
Author:
Born
in London
and
educated
at the
University
of Kent
this
former
well known
and
controversial
Barrister
John
Burrett
and his
nephew
were
arrested
in a blaze
of media
frenzy in
July 2002
and
falsely
charged
with
attempting
to Kidnap
one of
Wellington’s
leading
businessmen.
According
to the New
Zealand
police
John was
about to
demand
millions
for the
release of
Mr X. but
the jury
never
believed
that part
of the
story.
Their
trial in
the High
Court
which
lasted for
seven
weeks was
by
international
standards
a travesty
of
justice.
As
a result
John spent
nearly
5 years
in prison
for a
crime he
did not
commit.
Now
free he
tells the
full story
of what
really
happened. READ MORE on www.johnburrett.co.uk PUBLICATION
