Produktbeschreibung

Andreas Dresp had been home from college on summer break just a few short weeks. He was in high spirits, carefree, and happy as he headed out on a Saturday evening to meet up with friends. Little did he know that within a few short hours, his life would come to a tragic end. Just two blocks away from his suburban Boston home, he fell victim to a deadly assault by a stranger.

Speak for Me, Mom is Christine Wolf's raw and unfiltered firsthand account of the heart-wrenching journey that began on the night of her son's murder. The narrative delves into the painstaking homicide investigation, the arrest of the murder suspect, the grueling trial, and the aftermath of a crime that left an indelible mark on the many lives it touched.

This is a poignant tale that unveils the steep toll exacted by youth violence in America and the intricate and often perplexing maze of the U.S. court system. It is an exploration of traumatic grief, and one mother's quest to discover meaning amidst an unfathomable loss.
