They were loners, not the popular kids at school. But on this night they seemed to finally fit in. They had fun, played games, drank, and hung around bonfires with other people. The next morning, a sixteen-year-old girl was dead. By the next week, Kyle was charged with her murder. Due to insufficient evidence he was let go, but the Mounties were convinced he was the killer.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e They laid a trap, called the Mr. Big operation, for Kyle. With offers of money, friends, and a new criminal lifestyle, the RCMP got Kyle to confess to the murder. But the confession was false--he had not been the killer. He was convicted and sent to prison.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e For the next twenty years Kyle fought for his freedom. He was finally acquitted in 2009.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e This book tells the story of an impressionable but innocent teenager who was wrongfully convicted based on the controversial Mr. Big police tactic.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDistributed in the U.S by Lerner Publishing Group\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Lorimer Children \u0026amp; Teens\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/01\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781459408623\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 136\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.40lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.30h x 5.50w x 0.30d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReview Citations: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 07\/15\/2015 pg. 95\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eSchool Library Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 09\/01\/2015 pg. 152\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAccelerated Reader Quiz #\/Name: \u003c\/b\u003e180861 \/ Real Justice: A Police Mr. Big Sting Goes Wrong: The Story of Kyle Unger\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReading Level:\u003c\/b\u003e 6.3 \/ \u003cb\u003eInterest Level:\u003c\/b\u003e Middle Grade Plus \/ \u003cb\u003ePoint Value:\u003c\/b\u003e 3\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Richard Brignall","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52452309762229,"sku":"9781459408623","price":11.01,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_a42f6113-81a8-4909-9aec-71b889dfd74e.jpg?v=1776826675","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/real-justice-a-police-mr-big-sting-goes-wrong-the-story-of-kyle-unger-9781459408623","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
