Download or read book Homicide, North and South written by Horace V. Redfield and published by Ohio State University Press. This book was released on 2000 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While H. V. Redfield was not the first person to note the elevated amount of interpersonal violence in Southern and border states, Homicide, North and South was the first book to investigate regional differences in murder systematically, by discussing counts and rates from different states and the two major regions side by side. It appears to be the first book to draw on newspaper clippings to document homicide rates quantitatively, and it certainly was the first work to do so in a systematic, comparative fashion. Redfield was the first person to use multiple data sources, both news clippings and (from those states that collected and published them) mortality or criminal statistics. Where possible, he compared such records with one another to establish their joint reliability.

Book excerpt: From New York Times bestselling author Gilly Macmillan comes this original, chilling and twisty mystery about two shocking murder cases twenty years apart, and the threads that bind them. Twenty years ago, eleven-year-olds Charlie Paige and Scott Ashby were murdered in the city of Bristol, their bodies dumped near a dog racing track. A man was convicted of the brutal crime, but decades later, questions still linger. For his whole life, filmmaker Cody Swift has been haunted by the deaths of his childhood best friends. The loose ends of the police investigation consume him so much that he decides to return to Bristol in search of answers. Hoping to uncover new evidence, and to encourage those who may be keeping long-buried secrets to speak up, Cody starts a podcast to record his findings. But there are many people who don’t want the case—along with old wounds—reopened so many years after the tragedy, especially Charlie’s mother, Jess, who decides to take matters into her own hands. When a long-dead body is found in the same location the boys were left decades before, the disturbing discovery launches another murder investigation. Now Detective John Fletcher, the investigator on the original case, must reopen his dusty files and decide if the two murders are linked. With his career at risk, the clock is ticking and lives are in jeopardy…

This book was released on 2023-07-17 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Story of Hard Spirits and Defiant Souls Franklin County, Virginia has long been known as the Moonshine Capital of the World. That history can seem romantic, but the county has a dark and violent past. The descendants of the Scots-Irish who settled its rugged mountains openly defied the law and employed their own notions of justice to defend their traditions and livelihood. During Prohibition, the production of moonshine skyrocketed, but the liquor didn't stop flowing from the mountains when the Eighteenth Amendment was repealed. County and state officials struggled to maintain order in a region where unsolved murders, strange disappearances, and senseless killings were a way of life. The peak came in 1978, with nine murders linked to moonshine and drugs in the county. Historian and Virginia native Phillip Andrew Gibbs tells story of that horrific year and the history behind it.

Book excerpt: Denver office developer, Alexander Kellogg, is likely murdered in a powerful home explosion. His wife, Maggie Donaldson; a South American drug cartel; a ruthless bookmaker; and a prominent U.S. congressman are the prime suspects. Alexander's brother, Robert, desperately tries to save Kellogg Development Company after its default on a $350 million office portfolio loan, as well as defending several lawsuits. Maggie, who has fled to Switzerland, has stolen $70 million from the development company, plus $9 million of the cartel's partnership funds. Maggie enlists her daughter, Chanelle, in the caper to share in the wealth. The FBI and Interpol decline to get involved in Maggie's disappearance, although Robert Kellogg, a private investigator, a dedicated police detective, and a crafty district attorney collaborate to solve the murder mystery. The Department of Justice ultimately intercedes in the investigation and its ambitious U.S. Attorney issues an arrest warrant.
