After the Felony Assault charges where dropped John sets out on his new life by being accepted into an airline academy in south Florida, which will eventually launch him into the corporate world. Enjoying his life and working for prominent Fortune 500 firms, success comes until, at the pinnacle of his flourishing career, he resumes his romance with Gloria--the one girl he has never been able to forget. Gloria, miserable since the day John was forced out of Geneva, moves to Texas to be with him. They are happy until her mother and Skyler VanHorn find out where he is. Once again John finds his life and future threatened. John's formidable enemy, the now former District Attorney, the man who resigned his position at the conclusion of John's last trial, enlists the help of a corrupt social worker and a corrupt, dishonest ADA in Tarrant County Texas to formally charge John of a life-changing felony. A dishonest New York social worker, Van Horn's friend and accomplice, provides false testimony while a Texas ADA withholds crucial evidence that should have exonerated John immediately. Headlines reign again, this time across the state of Texas. The Texas assistant DA is fired and the social worker is discredited and disgraced, but not until several years of wrongful imprisonment and countless legal proceedings. John's conviction is finally overturned and he is declared "Factually Innocent" by the Texas Supreme Court. However, he spends more than twelve long and terrifying years fighting for his life in the courts and in prison. While he is confined, one by one, his precious family passes away. After regaining his freedom, John returns to a changed world determined to put his life back together and enjoy the freedom that never should have been taken from him.
