Quincy Five

Quincy Five

The "Quincy Five" refers to a group of five men from Quincy, Florida who were charged with the murder of a deputy sheriff, but later exonerated.

1974 saw the publication of the book David Charles: The Story of the Quincy Five, authored by Jeffrey Lickson. It included extensive material based on prison interviews with David Charles, which focused on his upbringing and experiences as a musician and as a soldier in the Vietnam War. At the time, Charles was serving a Florida prison sentence for setting a bomb at an electrical station in North Florida.

He was subsequently sentenced on Federal gun charges and released from Federal Prison on May 28, 1992.[1]. Because David Charles was independently published in the early 1970s, it has no ISBN number.
