What They said About My book ?

“Exceptionally well written, impressively organized, effectively presented, "Blue Mafia: Police Brutality and Consent Decrees in Ohio" is basically a local non-fiction story with national implications that reads with all the drama of a suspense thriller novel. Author Tim Tolka has done the entire country a valued service in bringing to print the struggle and achievement of Attorney Richard Olivito.”

Midwest Book Review

Ranked #12 of the “44 Best Police Brutality Books of All Time.”

Book Authority

“A journalistically meticulous look at two federal investigations into local police misconduct in the small Ohio towns of Steubenville and Warren that feels remarkably timely.”

Gardhavico Designation

“Blue Mafia opens a window into a world we all know exists, but most of us have not had the clarity to see how bad it really is. Tolka makes sure in the book's closing to note that these cases and his research is not an attempt to label all police and local governments as corrupt. Rather it is a stark warning how so few people in the right places can systematically gain and retain utter control, legality and constitutionality be damned.”
