Crimes within Arizona’s
Criminal Justice System! Each day in Maricopa County, Arizona, a person is
wrongfully arrested. Jury awards against County Sheriff Arpaio and others have
cost taxpayers millions. It’s a justice system that has cost careers, families, lives. “BackSPIN,” the movie, details the story of tennis pro Alison Hicks – wrongfully arrested, wrongfully accused – and her nightmare in the hands of an Arizona court.

Oakenshield Commits to BackSPIN Movie!
Rod Johns writes:
I became involved in this project in mid 2011 when Alison Hicks sent me a copy of her story BackSPIN.
After reading BackSPIN I was enthralled by Alison’s story and appalled at how an innocent young woman’s life could be devastated by a series of escalating events and that such injustice could happen in modern American society.
As Alison continues to fight for justice, and as part of this ongoing campaign, I’m now in the process of signing a collaboration agreement with Alison and putting together a film treatment based on how these events came close to ruining her life and making her enthralling, sometime horrific and heartrending, and almost unbelievable story (which in different circumstances could have befallen any of us) into a feature drama film with shades or Steven Soderbergh’s Erin Brockovich and Niki Caro’s North County.

A single mom trapped in a downward spiral to the depths of her soul.An excessively zealous Sheriff who passes judgement and sees all who enter his jail—convicted or not—as hardened criminals.A flawed criminal system that could destroy any one of us.
If not for the favorable and encouraging exposure of the news media, Alison could still have been caught in that system.Alison eventually was exonerated of all charges.
Thanks to the love and support of her daughter Jessann—along with family & friends—she survived what could have been a trip of no return.
Alison recounts her experience in “BackSPIN”, providing hope for others.
