About the Book
In 2014, Kingston Trinder posted a Craiglist advert: ‘Extraordinary True Stories Wanted – do you have a true, untold story you’d like to share?’ He received a brief but startling response.
Incarcerated is a commanding, disturbing piece of investigative journalism that delves into the shocking case of David Snyders.
A young man with a troubled past, David was wrongfully incarcerated for eight years over nothing more than a contested cab fare. Imprisoned alongside the criminally and psychologically disturbed in the 300-acre fortress of the Mental Health Institute of Colorado, David watched others die under the supposed supervision of unethical psychiatrists, until he eventually became one of only a handful of people to be released unconditionally.
A searing account of David’s extraordinary story, incarcerated is an investigation into an incomprehensible miscarriage of justice, and an exploration into the disconcertingly indistinct boundaries between sanity and insanity.
