The host of the America s Most Wanted John Walsh tells for the first time the full story of the 1981 abduction and murder of his six-year-old son Adam. This is the heartbreaking chronicle of John Walsh s transformation from grieving father to full-time activist -- and the infuriating conspiracy of events that have kept America s No. 1 crime-fighter from obtaining justice and closure for himself and his family. From the day Adam disappeared from a mall in Hollywood Florida John Walsh faced a local police department better equipped to track stolen cars than missing children -- and a criminal justice system that would work against him in unimaginable ways. Outraged but determined he ultimately enlarged the search for Adam s killer into an exhaustive battle on behalf of all missing and abused children beginning with his efforts to put missing children s faces on milk cartons. Today John Walsh continues the fight for legislative change and public awareness driven by his own personal tragedy. Tears of Rage is the story of a true American hero: a man who challenged the system in the name of his son.
