About this audiobook
In Florida’s Final Sentence, Carey Randall examines decades of wrongful convictions and executions to uncover how certainty repeatedly replaced scrutiny inside Florida’s capital punishment system—and how those decisions cost innocent people their freedom and, in some cases, their lives.
Drawing from documented cases, court findings, and historical records, this book traces the patterns that made irreversible error possible: coerced confessions, mistaken eyewitness identifications, incentivized informant testimony, unreliable forensic science, and institutional resistance to admitting error.
This is not an argument built on theory or ideology.
It is a record built on names, timelines, and outcomes.
From teenagers pressured into confessing, to innocent fathers nearly executed, to men put to death before the truth emerged, Florida’s Final Sentence reveals a system that valued finality over accuracy—and certainty over truth.
