Overview

The Silent Witness A True Crime Memoir of Love, Deception, and the Small-Town Spree Killer Have you ever wondered what drives an ordinary man to commit extraordinary evil? What happens when love, redemption, and faith collide with violence, denial, and horror? Behind every headline lies a hidden story-this one begins with a mother's hope and ends with a city's heartbreak. In The Silent Witness, author Indigo Slade peels back the layers of one of Arizona's most shocking real-life cases-the story of Cleophus Cooksey Jr., a recently released prisoner whose brief taste of freedom spiraled into a two-week spree of brutal killings that left a community reeling. This book takes readers beyond the crime scenes and into the heart of those who lived it-the families, investigators, and survivors whose voices often go unheard.
