The Author
Miguel Quinones — New York City
The man behind the case
In 2016, I was charged with first-degree murder and kidnapping in West Virginia. I was acquitted. Then came a federal prosecution.
What followed was a years-long battle through a system I came to understand from the inside — through interrogation recordings, filed motions, court documents, and published records. Conspiracy to Deprive is built on every one of them.
I wrote this book because I survived something that most people don't — and because the tactics used against me are not unique. They are a pattern. This memoir is my accounting of that pattern, offered as a road map for anyone who needs it.
I am available for speaking engagements, media appearances, and adaptation inquiries.
