Road to Redemption is the non-fictional story of an author's relentless pursuit of justice, and full vindication. After being wrongfully arrested and maliciously prosecuted for murder, Dameon K. Wroe is finally breaking his silence to tell the public the truthful version about what happened on the night of January 1, 2004 while working at an upscale apartment complex in Rancho Cucamonga, California. Working as an armed security officer on the night of the incident, a Rancho Cucamonga man was fatally shot by Wroe, after he twice tried to run Wroe over with his pick-up truck to avoid being arrested for Assault With a Deadly Weapon. The San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department Detective Bureau thoroughly investigated the shooting and determined that Wroe's actions were justifiable homicide in self-defense. For reasons that many have described as unjust, malicious, and retaliatory, the San Bernardino County District Attorney's Office unfairly prosecuted Dameon K. Wroe anyway. Though Wroe's then attorney, Donald J. Calabria, completely destroyed the prosecution's murder case, resulting in a not guilty verdict, Wroe was ultimately railroaded into taking a plea deal for involuntary manslaughter. With a remarkable and transparent demonstration of faith and courage, Wroe also describes a 1995 case where he was falsely arrested by LAPD detectives out of Van Nuys, and wrongfully charged with two counts of armed robbery that he had no knowledge of. Though the district attorney's office in that case had evidence that pointed towards Wroe's innocence, the district attorney ignored it and prosecuted him anyway. Donald J. Calabria also represented Wroe in the malicious 1995 robbery case, in which the jury unanimously acquitted him of all charges. To date, Dameon K. Wroe remains prayerful that "Road to Redemption" will eventually land in the hands of state and local law makers who will reform current laws, policies, and tactics that district attorneys systematically use to target Black men and other people of color for malicious and wrongful prosecutions that ultimately lead to wrongful convictions. On the back cover of the book, the author offers a heart-felt dedication to Black men around the nation who have also been wrongfully, maliciously, and unjustly arrested for crimes that they never committed, as technological advancements in DNA testing is continuing to prove. For any film directors or producers looking to add a new, action-packed movie to their catalog, based on a true story... now is definitely the time!
