These bombs killed 1 person and injured more than 100 people

On July 27th, 1996, Richard Jewell was an innocent man who had just finished a long day of work when he decided to stop by the local pool for some laps. He was in the wrong place at the wrong time, as a bomb blew up in Centennial Olympic Park that would ultimately kill one person and injure more than 100 others. The crime left the FBI with a lot of questions about how certain events unfolded and who exactly was involved with it. An investigative journalist named Kent Alexander wrote this book detailing his perspective on what happened from his perspective.
