丹·斯莱皮安：本书《The Sing Sing Files》讲述了作者在Dateline工作近30年期间，深入调查刑事司法系统中错误定罪案件的经历。作者回顾了自己早年对司法系统的信任，以及后来通过调查拉斯维加斯凶杀案和纽约市布朗克斯区凶杀案，逐渐发现错误定罪的普遍性。书中重点讲述了六个被错误监禁的无辜男子的故事，从监狱探访、法庭听证会到对相关人员的采访，作者力图揭示这些案件背后的真相，以及为证明无辜者清白所付出的艰辛努力。作者还分享了自己在电视新闻行业的工作经历，以及在911事件后对纽约警察的敬佩之情。在与布朗克斯区凶杀案调查组警探Bobby Adelarado的合作中，一个案件让作者开始怀疑司法系统的公正性，从而促使他更深入地调查错误定罪问题。
