Details of the book
Justice: Crimes, Trials, and Punishments

Justice: Crimes, Trials and Punishments reveals that writing about the crimes of the rich and famous for Vanity Fair has meant that Dominick Dunne has been able to bear witness to the often bizarre personalities who surround high-profile cases and their telling intimacies--Andrea Reynolds, for instance, displaying her jewels while dressed only in a negligee, insisting that hers are finer than those of the comatose woman in whose apartment she resides and who her lover, Claus van Bulow, is charged with attempting to murder. The essays in Justice offer a fascinating, disturbing and wry look at the cast of a half dozen high-profile trials, including Lyle and Erik Menendez, who murdered their affluent parents; Marvin Pancoast, who beat the $18,000-a-month mistress of Alfred Bloomingdale to death with a baseball bat; the multibillionnaire banker Edmund Safra, who suffocated in his own bunker-like bathroom in Monaco; and the gossiping members of Los Angeles society during "All OJ, All the Time".

The most moving story by far is the title piece about the murder of Dunne's daughter, the actress Dominique Dunne, by her ex-boyfriend, who walked away with a pitifully light sentence thanks to the extremes taken by his defence lawyer and the vanity of the judge. While the succeeding stories don't have the same poignancy, Dunne still makes them personal--after all, he knows many of those involved, and justice truly is personal for him. In fact, it is this moral authority that enables him to enter the strange universe of high-society crime and write about it with no pretence of objectivity, but rather with rage toward the short shrift justice is so often given in celebrity cases. The counterpoint to his anger is a delicious irony in the form of fascinating subplots, jet-set gossip, and terrific quotes straight from of the horses' mouths. Dunne has both a sharp sense of the absurd and a trenchant eye for injustice in any form. --Lesley Reed
