About the book

In today's United States, we face a modern-day Goliath with the resources to ensure that its people can be made defenseless criminals, vulnerable to tricks of a crooked trade, at a moment's notice. Our Goliath, armed with half a million regulations, statutes, and laws, holds the power to cage its constituents based on little else but the pure hunger of a beast blinded to true justice by a rage which aims to trample the liberties of the American people.


This Goliath is the United States Federal Government.

Our "David," then, is author and nationally-recognized Ronald W. Chapman II, ESQ, LL.M., a top federal defense attorney with a number of high-profile federal acquittals packed into a legal career rich with expert experience fighting the government and forcing it to prove itself, every step of the way. In FIGHT THE FEDS: UNRAVELING FEDERAL CRIMINAL INVESTIGATIONS, Chapman takes the lead on such cases as the Oklahoma City Bombing to explain federal jurisdiction, the acquittal of Kyle Rittenhouse to deconstruct a prosecution doomed to fail, and why chemical warfare isn't always terrorism -- especially when it involves scorned housewives.

Written for law students, attorneys, and the currently convicted, as much for the general public, FIGHT THE FEDS is an expert behind-the-scenes analysis of how the federal government deploys its dirtiest tricks to swallow whole everything in its path and what we the people can do to fight back.
