One afternoon, students at a high school in Louisville, Kentucky, discovered a body facedown and lifeless in a drainage ditch. Within minutes, police descended onto school grounds and encountered one of the most violent crime scenes in their careers, the ravaged body of fourteen-year-old Trey Zwicker.

ACCUSED: A Heartbreaking Death and the Quest for Justice (New Horizon Press, January 2015) tells the true story of the relationship and jealousy of a stepfather who brutalized not only his stepson but others that resulted in a brutal, stomach-churning crime. Soon after Joshua Gouker was released from prison, gained custody of his son and moved in with Amanda McFarland, her son, Trey Zwicker-Gouker's stepson-was dead. Trey's stepfather and fifteen-year-old stepbrother, Joshua, were charged with the murder. Who was really guilty? The psychopathic stepfather or Young, a former honor student and wrestler?

ACCUSED author Brittany Ducker utilizes her experience as a criminal defense attorney in the Louisville area to offer telling insights and revealing evidence into the case and backgrounds of Trey Zwicker, Joshua Young and Joshua Gouker.
