During the late-1990s, there was a dual system of justice in Atlanta. Attractive prosecutor LaPrecious Rhodes enforced criminal justice and a murderous female vigilante named Serena enforced street justice. With the talented Rhodes, criminals lost their freedom; with merciless Serena, however, they lost their lives. Local homicide detective John Cronin battled Serenas street justice with an intense passion. Serena became an obsession not just for him but for another detective and a member of the public defenders office as well.

Thats a question of intent.

I first became interested in genealogy when I was about twelve. It was then that my paternal grandmother first introduced me to a book entitled Genealogy of the Fell Family in America Descended from Joseph Fell. This book, which was published in 1891, included my grandfather, Charles McConnell Lightburn.
