Summary:
"On Feb. 12, 2008, at E.O. Green Junior
High
in
Oxnard
,
California
, 14-year-old Brandon McInerney shot and killed his classmate, 15-year-old Larry King, who had recently begun to call himself "Leticia" and wear makeup and jewelry to
school
. Unsettled by media coverage that sidestepped the issues of gender identity and of race, psychologist Ken Corbett traveled to LA to attend the trial. As visions of victim and perpetrator were woven and unwoven in the theater of the courtroom, a haunting picture emerged not only of the two young teenagers, but also of spectators altered by an atrocity and of a community that had unwittingly gestated a murder. Corbett holds each murky facet of this
case
up to the light, exploring the fault lines of memory and the lacunae of uncertainty behind facts. Ken Corbett is a clinical assistant professor at the New York University Postdoctoral Program in Psychoanalysis and Psychotherapy."--Provided by publisher.
