Book Synopsis Absolute Madness by : Catherine Pelonero
Download or read book Absolute Madness written by Catherine Pelonero and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2017-11-07 with total page 617 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Absolute Madness tells the disturbing true story of Joseph Christopher, a white serial killer who targeted black males and struck fear into the residents of New York in the 1980s. Dubbed both the 22-Caliber Killer and the Midtown Slasher, Christopher allegedly claimed eighteen victims during a savage four-month spree across the state. The investigation, aided by famed FBI profiler John Douglas, drew national attention and biting criticism from Jesse Jackson and other civil rights leaders. The killer, when at last he was unmasked, seemed an unlikely candidate to have held New York in a grip of terror. His capture was neither the end of the story nor the end of the racial strife, which flared anew during circuitous prosecutions and judicial rulings that prompted cries of a double standard in the justice system. Both a wrenching true crime story and an incisive portrait of dangerously discordant race relations in America, Absolute Madness also chronicles a lonely, vulnerable man’s tragic descent into madness and the failure of the American mental health system that refused his pleas for help.
Book Synopsis Kitty Genovese by : Catherine Pelonero
Download or read book Kitty Genovese written by Catherine Pelonero and published by Skyhorse Publishing Inc.. This book was released on 2014-03-04 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A New York Times bestseller! Written in a flowing narrative style, Kitty Genovese: A True Account of a Public Murder and Its Private Consequences presents the story of the horrific and infamous murder of Kitty Genovese, a young woman stalked and stabbed on the street where she lived in Queens, New York in 1964. The case sparked national outrage when the New York Times revealed that dozens of witnesses had seen or heard the attacks on Kitty Genovese and her struggle to reach safety but had failed to come to her aid—or even call police until after the killer had fled. This book cuts through misinformation and conjecture to present a definitive portrait of the crime, the aftermath, and the people. Based on six years of research, Catherine Pelonero’s book presents the facts from the police reports, archival material, court documents, and first-hand interviews. Pelonero offers a personal look at Kitty Genovese, an ambitious young woman viciously struck down in the prime of her life; Winston Moseley, the killer who led a double life as a responsible family man by day and a deadly predator by night; the consequences for a community condemned; and others touched by the tragedy. Beyond just a true crime story, the book embodies much larger themes: the phenomenon of bystander inaction, the evolution of a serial killer, and the fears and injustices spawned by the stark prejudices of an era, many of which linger to this day.
Book Synopsis The New York Ripper Serial Killer Richard Cottingham by : Peter Vronsky
Download or read book The New York Ripper Serial Killer Richard Cottingham written by Peter Vronsky and published by RJ PARKER PUBLISHING, INC.. This book was released on 2018-01-17 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A shocking case of unbridled sex, sadism, prostitution, date-rape drugs, abduction, bondage, torture, sexploitation, perverted fetishes, serial killing and dismemberment of the depraved New York notorious Ripper. Historian and International Bestselling Author, Peter Vronsky, describes his brief encounter with serial killer Cottingham in a seedy New York hotel in 1979 that later inspired him to write his bestseller history “Serial Killers: The Method and Madness of Monsters”. In “Times Square Torso Ripper” Vronsky explores the history of the notorious Forty-Deuce strip on 42nd Street near Times Square and how it spawned the sadistic monster Richard Cottingham in an era before the term "serial killer" had been coined in popular culture. Renowned serial homicide expert Dr. Robert D. Keppel said of Richard Cottingham, “I kept asking myself what it was that ultimately intrigued me about the Cottingham case. Partly it was the level of sadistic torture that Cottingham acted out on his victims. He didn’t kill them and desecrate their bodies; he forced them to experience pain and humiliation before he killed them. Then he desecrated their bodies.” Includes 50 photos

Book excerpt: Detective Stephen Lewis works for the Detroit PD. During the summer of 2001 the city is in a state of fear, held in the clutches of a serial murderer the media have dubbed The Chrysler Killer. One night whilst in pursuit of the man he believes to be the prime suspect, Detective Lewis is responsible for the death of a child. From that moment on Stephen's life spirals out of control as he is made a scapegoat by the Justice Department's investigation into corruption and Police brutality. Stripped of his job and hitting the bottle Stephen hits rock bottom and can only see one way out, believing he has nothing to live for he contemplates ending his life. Before he can go through with it Agent Maguire turns up at his door. Representing The Company he offers something that most people never get, a second chance to make something of his life.

Over the years they have come, John Belushi, River Phoenix, Kurt Cobain, all faking their deaths in order to join the growing community living within the confines of the Project. It was a simple life, and a peaceful one, that was until 1981, the year The Company played their hand. Agreeing deals with a multitude of South American Governments The Company began to ship prisoners from the over populated prisons of the continent and place them in a specially built sector of the underground city. Their hands tied the celebrity residents have no option other than to stay, building a wall around themselves whilst letting it be known that they would continue to oversee the Project governance. To maintain control a security force is required, and this was where the offer of a second chance came in. Stephen Lewis was dead but Noah Franklin had a clean slate with which to work. The job was mundane, knowing there was no way out everybody lived in relative peace, a blind eye turned to the drugs and gambling in return for a truce between the four boroughs. That was until a murder took place, all of the evidence pointing to it being the work of someone who had grand plans for bringing Project Blue Chrysalis to its knees. As much as he doesn't like it Noah is tasked with stopping the murderer before his work can be completed. Surrounded by the worst that society has to offer and being pressured by superiors to deliver Noah must do everything in his power to bring the killer to justice. All the while walking the thin line between the inmates and their famous warders.
Download or read book Spree Killers written by Mark Safarik and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2019-10-18 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spree Killers: Practical Classifications for Law Enforcement and Criminology is the only exhaustive, up-to-date analytical book on spree killers, standing apart from those dedicated to mass murderers and serial killers. Multicides have traditionally been categorized as double, triple, mass, serial and spree—while, mass and serial have been further divided into subcategories. Spree killing, which involves the killing of at least three persons at two or more locations due to a precipitating incident that fuels the urge to kill, remains a poorly defined concept. In the United States, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) eliminated this term from its multicide nomenclature in 2005, but the authors examination of 359 cases involving 419 spree killers from 43 countries shows that not only is there enough diversity among spree killers to form classifications—similar to those devised for mass and serial—but also that subtypes offer distinct utility for identification, tracking, and warning potential targets. Spree Killers outline the designation of spree killer specifically and thoroughly. In addition to looking at existing literature, specific cases, and the behavioral patterns, it offers a fully worked up profile for the typology. The behaviors and motives for spree killers align in six categories, which are detailed in full. The book provides unique insight for police, forensic, and investigative personnel into what to look for to respond to, and—in some cases identify and stopping—certain types of spree killings.
