Book Details
Evil at Our Table by Samantha Stein, PsyD offers a rare, firsthand look at how some of the most difficult decisions in the justice system are made. Told from inside the prison interview room, the story follows the work of a forensic psychologist tasked with evaluating individuals charged with extreme sexual crimes.
Inside a small prison interview room, Dr. Stein meets individuals whose futures hinge on her assessments. Working under California’s Sexually Violent Predator Law, she must determine whether someone poses an ongoing threat to society or can safely be released. The stakes are enormous, and certainty is never guaranteed.
In Evil at Our Table, Dr. Stein examines the lives and crimes of the people she evaluates, listening closely to their histories, motivations, and expressions of remorse. She studies behavior, reasoning, and psychological patterns while acknowledging how fragile prediction can be. Balancing accountability with a clear-eyed recognition of shared humanity, she documents not only the outcomes of specific cases but the personal toll of carrying such responsibility. Part forensic examination and part exploration of human nature, the book probes the uneasy boundary between justice, public safety, and civil liberties.
