The incredible story of Kenny Richey, the innocent Scot on Death Row, told by his brother Tom and published to coincide with Kenny's release When Tom Richey and his elder brother Kenny left their ordinary Edinburgh home to join their American father in a small conservative Ohio town, they could never have imagined the kind of tragedies that would befall them. Within a few years, Tom would be sentenced to sixty-five years in jail for murder and Kenny would find himself on Death Row, having been found guilty of deliberately causing the death of a two-year-old girl by arson. Told with candour and remarkable perception by Tom Richey, Death Row Scot was written in Tom's prison cell. It is the story of why his brother's life came to unravel in such a spectacularly devastating and incredible way. Tom looks at how Kenny's death sentence was delivered after a catalogue of mistakes by the investigating police, Kenny's legal team and the prosecution: A carpet from the burnt-out apartment was sent to be tested for the presence of accelerants AFTER it had lain beside petrol pumps.
