Nora Dockson Legal Thrillers

Oregon correctional center inmate Winnie Yates is serving mandatory minimum sentences adding up to nineteen years and two months. Locked up from age twenty until she turns thirty-nine.
A harsh punishment when her victim came through the so-called home invasion with only a bruise on her forehead.
Winnie's appeal failed but today she has a chance to make a better deal. Her reward will be immediate release, shaving forty months off her sentence.
Winnie has only to own her crime. Convince her victim she regrets what she did.
She has the words down pat.
But how does she demonstrate true remorse when she's never seen anyone do it?
When today's session ends, will Winnie walk back to her cell? Or through the sally port to freedom?
