Cops Lie... Crooks Lie... Statistics Don't!

By Nicholas Brown

The system isn't perfect, and many people have been made statistics by criminals and police officers. Cops Lie...Crooks Lie...Statistics Don't is the coming of age story of Lucas "Baby Shango" John, who's discussing his career path and the reasons why. Nicholas A. Brown created this in the hopes of showing certain private conversations had between upstanding black people, and how they navigate through criminality and police harassment in America.
