The Ride's Back On: Wrongly Accused

In Stop the Ride, I Want to Get Off, Dave Courtney wrote about his life of crime and how he had decided to put that all behind him, and move into the world of the media. This proved harder that he thought, as he details in this book. For Dave faces a fierce test as he is accused by a corrupt policeman of being a grass, and although the court case ends up with the Dave going free, (and the policeman in jail), nevertheless Dave's reputation needs defending. So he defends it here - telling the world about what really goes on, both in court (dressed as a jester, and punching out the corrupt officer, for starters) and out of it - gunfights in Tenerife, porn films in LA, taking his own movie, Hell to Pay, to the Cannes film festival, and getting caught in gang warfare.
