The Franklin Scandal

Author Nick Bryant was apprehensive about the whole affair that started in Nebraska. His personal involvement began in 2002, as he writes in the book: "Unknown to me I had been launched on a journey to a parallel universe, one that coexists with the universe of Little League, Boy Scouts, Disneyland, and the other hallmarks of wholesome, youthful Americana - a universe where lies masquerade as truth, where shadows reflect light, where innocence is condemned." Nick Bryant's writing has recurrently focused on the plight of disadvantaged children in the United States, and he's been published in numerous national journals, including the Journal of Professional Ethics, Journal of Applied Developmental Psychology, Journal of Social Distress and Homelessness, etc. He is co-author of America's Children: Triumph of Tragedy, addressing the medical and developmental problems of lower socioeconomic children in America.
