As a federal prosecutor in Mississippi for over
thirty years, John Hailman worked with federal agents, lawyers, judges,
and criminals of every stripe. In From Midnight to Guntown, he
recounts amazing trials and bad guy antics from the darkly humorous to
the needlessly tragic. In addition to bank robbers--generally the
dumbest criminals--Hailman describes scam artists, hit men, protected
witnesses, colorful informants, corrupt officials, bad guys with funny
nicknames, over-the-top investigators, and those defendants who had a
certain roguish charm. Several of his defendants and victims have since
had whole books written about them: Dickie Scruggs, Emmett Till, Chicago
gang leader Jeff Fort, and Paddy Mitchell, leader of the most
successful bank robbery gang of the twentieth century. But Hailman
delivers the inside story no one else can. He also recounts his scary
experiences after 9/11 when he prosecuted terrorism cases.
