OverviewThere's no experience quite as surreal or as horrifying as seeing your own mugshot flashed across the television screen during the evening news, all from the comfort of your very own jail cell. Yet, that's exactly what happened to South Carolina conservative talk radio personality and political activist, Josh Kimbrell, in October of 2014. Kimbrell, a public figure in the Palmetto State, was on the rise - campaigning with members of Congress, serving on numerous community boards of directors, and being appointed by the Governor to the board of a state agency... until the unthinkable happened. When a nearly four-year-long custody battle took a dark turn, Kimbrell found himself arrested by the Greenville City Police, placed in a jail cell, and forced to defend his honor, fight for his freedom, and battle to see his son again. Fatherhood on Trial is the personal account of a public person who had to fight a system stacked against him to be an active father to his own child. While Kimbrell's story is a highly public example, this horrifying drama plays out all too often in America, with children being caught in the crossfire. Too many parents are prosecuted when family court cases go criminal and children are deprived of one or more of their parents while the wreckage is sorted. This book is the personal story of a father's battle for his son and serves as a rallying cry for much-needed and long-past-due family law reform in America. Fatherhood on Trial is a cautionary tale for other families who may face similar circumstances and a call for reforms that can prevent such nightmares from happening to other parents and their children in the future.
