This is a family with whom everyone can identify. Their lives, however, became public after one horrible event that captured and held the world's attention. In His Name Is Ron they recount, moment by moment, learning the shocking news of Ron's untimely death and the nightmare that followed, as well as recalling the happier times in Ron's life. The family tells how their lives continued to be shattered during the course of two lengthy trials and provides personal

reactions to the major players in the case. The family also speaks for the first time openly and candidly about the criminal trial and its heart-stopping verdict. They take you behind the scenes of Judge Ito's courtroom into places where the camera could not reach, giving the only account of the proceedings that is not filtered through journalists or lawyers. They reveal the details of the civil trial that were never before allowed to be made public, due to the gag order

imposed on all participants. And, finally, they describe their determination to bring much-needed reforms to the criminal justice system and to give voices to other victims of violent crimes
