あらすじ・解説
Everyone knows the story of Jerry Sandusky, the serial pedophile, the Monster. But what if that story is wrong? What if the former Penn State football coach and founder of the Second Mile is an innocent man convicted in the midst of a moral panic fed by the sensationalistic media, police trawling, and memory-warping psychotherapy? The Most Hated Man in America unfolds like a true-crime psychological thriller and is required listening for everyone, from criminologists to sports fans.

批評家のレビュー
“If potential readers are convinced that Jerry Sandusky is guilty, they need to read The Most Hated Man in America. This meticulously researched, provocative, and wonderfully written book by Mark Pendergrast, an enormously important contributor to the repressed memory debate, will certainly make them see another side. Maybe they will think twice.” (Elizabeth Loftus, distinguished professor of psychology and social behavior, University of California, Irvine, author of The Myth of Repressed Memory and other books)
“The Most Hated Man in America tells a truly remarkable story. In all the media coverage the Sandusky case has received, it’s amazing that no one else has noticed or written about so many of these things, including all the ‘memories’ that were retrieved through therapy and litigation. One would think that the sheer insanity of so much of this will have to eventually come out.” (Richard A. Leo, Hamill Family Professor of Law and Psychology, University of San Francisco, author of Police Interrogation and American Justice and The Wrong Guys: Murder, False Confessions, and the Norfolk Four)
“Virtually everybody knows with certainty that Jerry Sandusky is a serial child molester. He was, after all, found guilty by a jury of his peers. But what if what we think we know about Sandusky is at least in some ways incorrect? Regardless of their ultimate conclusions, readers will find The Most Hated Man in America to be thoughtful and provocative, addressing questions that deserve to be asked in a just society.” (Fred S. Berlin, MD, PhD, director, The Johns Hopkins Sexual Behavior Consultation Unit, The Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine)
