Those authors, their book publishers and others were the target of a civil conspiracy lawsuit filed Friday in the U.S. District Court of Eastern Oklahoma. The lawsuit alleges defamation and intentional infliction of emotional distress and seeks damages of more than $75,000. John Grisham's book "The Innocent Man," his first nonfiction work, explores the investigation of the 1982 murder of Debbie Sue Carter, a waitress at an Ada restaurant.

The book, and the ensuing mini-series based on it, were accepted as fact, since McGinniss had direct access to, and cooperation from, his subject. His portrayal of MacDonald as a cold, narcissistic killer has been indelibly imprinted in the public's collective psyche over the years; the residual effects have tainted every court proceeding since trial.
