Book excerpt: A Pacific Coast metropolis famous for beautiful beaches and perfect weather and an American municipality since 1850, San Diego is America’s eighth-largest city. Known as America’s “Finest City,” it contains a wealth of history—evolutionary as well as revolutionary—in its crime files. Among those are the founder of the California wine industry, Judge Roy Bean, a black officer before the Emancipation Proclamation, a 19th-century Native American police chief, and women who had the power to arrest before they had the right to vote. Major incidents include massive floods, civil unrest, wildfires, and some of the largest police gun battles in history. San Diego also witnessed mass murder, America’s first major school shooting, the worst aviation disaster in American history, and the deadliest streets, per capita, to police. How the San Diego Police Department (SDPD) handled it all became textbook for many other police agencies.

Book Synopsis Who Killed Donna Gentile by : Larry S. Avrech
Download or read book Who Killed Donna Gentile written by Larry S. Avrech and published by Adamo Novus Books. This book was released on 2019-09-12 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Donna Marie Gentile was an informant for the San Diego Police Dept. Larry Avrech, who was a young officer at the time, stumbled across Donna and the information about her 'sugar daddy' within the department. Recognizing the telltale signs of possible corruption, he befriended the prostitute to dig deeper. It would turn out to be the biggest mistake of his career. Eight months later, Avrech was terminated. His police brothers had chosen to believe a prostitute over a trusted officer "because it fit the specific needs of the department at that particular time". His integrity cost everything dear to him-his career, his home, and later his children. After his termination, the vindictive department continued to threaten him; doing everything they could to preserve their coverup and destroy Larry. Only six weeks after Donna testified against Avrech, her lifeless nude body turned up making Larry an instant murder suspect. In a twist of fate, Avrech got a call from a high-ranking Deputy District Attorney who said he could prove Larry was set up. But the question remained, "Who Killed Donna Marie Gentile?" Larry would work tirelessly for the next seven years to uncover a serial murder and eventually reveal the details in this comprehensive book about what happened behind the sensational headlines.

Book Synopsis Police Detectives in History, 1750–1950 by : Clive Emsley
Download or read book Police Detectives in History, 1750–1950 written by Clive Emsley and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-09-29 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While the history of the uniformed police has prompted considerable research, the historical study of police detectives has been largely neglected; confined for the most part to a chapter or a brief mention in books dealing with the development of the police in general. The collection redresses this imbalance. Investigating themes central to the history of detection, such as the inchoate distinction between criminals and detectives, the professionalisation of detective work and the establishment of colonial police forces, the book provides a the first detailed examination of detectives as an occupational group, with a distinct occupational culture. Essays discuss the complex relationship between official and private law enforcers and examine the ways in which the FBI in the U.S.A. and the Gestapo in Nazi Germany operated as instruments of state power. The dynamic interaction between the fictional and the real life image of the detective is also explored. Expanding on themes and approaches introduced in recent academic research of police history, the comparative studies included in this collection provide new insights into the development of both plain-clothes policing and law enforcement in general, illuminating the historical importance of bureaucratic and administrative changes that occurred within the state system.

Book excerpt: Everyone thought the brilliant young computer scientist, Carsten Pietersen, had died but his Silex chip ensured its human host survived. Hijacking the body and mind of a rich entrepreneur kept Pietersen’s chip/brain combination alive and provided an opportunity not only, for revenge, but also, the means by which it could expand the number of recipients of the rogue Anthropos XT operating system. If some of the USA's most brilliant young scientists became enhanced with the Silex chip and XT operating system any hope of controlling this technology would be over and the military, criminals and megalomaniacs across the world would soon seek to possess the enhanced powers it offered. Who would believe that a human being had been hijacked and his mind replaced by another? Someone had to stop this from happening and two ex-Cybio executives decide to act.
