Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1955, Rollians Christopher, an illiterate goatherd who'd long claimed squatter's rights on Goat Island, across from the fishing village of New Berlin in the St. Johns River, found himself in a battle between multiple governmental authorities. Duval County wanted to develop the rattlesnake-infested island for industrial shipping purposes; the Florida Ship Canal Authority wanted the island for barge terminals. Christopher's opponents complained of his ethnic ambiguity-was he Black? White? American Indian? Spanish?-and claimed he'd killed someone, while defenders from around the state wrote letters to Congressman Charles Bennett, Governor LeRoy Collins, and the heads of the entities who wanted him gone. Duval County won the fight and developed Rollians Christopher's home into Blount Island. So what happened to Rollians Christopher? Where did he come from? If he wasn't connected to the Christophers, one of the largest and most diverse pioneer families in Northeast Florida, who was he? And what happened to his 1100 goats?

Stephen Fulcher receives a life-changing call that thrusts him into a race against the clock to save missing 22-year-old Sian O’Callaghan, who was last seen at a nightclub in Swindon. Steve knows from experience that he has a small window of time to find Sian alive, but his hopes are quickly dashed when his investigation leads him to Christopher Halliwell, a cabbie with sick obsessions.

Catching a Serial Killer is a thrilling, devastating and absorbing look at a real-life murder case and potentially one of the UK’s most prolific serial killers.
Book Synopsis Jeffrey Dahmer's Dirty Secret by : Arthur Jay Harris
Download or read book Jeffrey Dahmer's Dirty Secret written by Arthur Jay Harris and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 1981 murder of 6-year-old Adam Walsh, son of John Walsh, is one of the most shocking crime stories of the era. But why has there never been a "Trial of the Century" for it? Not for lack of suspects ... In fact, it's never been clearly established that the child who was found and officially identified as Adam -- was really him. After twenty years of following the case, including a deep investigation into the now-public record files of the police in Hollywood, Florida, and the Broward County Medical Examiner's Office, investigative author Arthur Jay Harris now has the definitive proof:All of the essential evidence and documentation, regularly collected and kept in every other case involving a found and initially unidentified body, which would forensically prove an identification -- is stunningly missing from the files of the Adam Walsh case. A report of an investigation by the Florida Department of Law Enforcement confirms it: It's not there. What is missing includes:There is no signed autopsy report, although an autopsy was performed; there are no photos of the autopsy; there is no forensic dental report, although the identification was made only by teeth; and there are no X-rays of the teeth of the found child, nor of Adam, from his dentist. As a prominent Miami forensic dentist told Harris, and other forensic dentists said as well, without a dental X-ray comparison he wouldn't be able to testify in court affirming the ID. That is how you make dental IDs, he said. And without a clear identification of the victim as Adam Walsh, a murder case against any defendant would fail. Why is all this evidence missing? Why is this case different from all other similar cases? Does this explain why the murder case of Adam Walsh has never come to trial -- and never will?Someone got away with the most heinous of murders -- and you might think, did more, afterwards. But was the child in fact Adam Walsh?Adam was missing two weeks when a child's brutally severed head was found in a remote roadside canal 125 miles away from the Hollywood shopping mall where Adam's mother said she'd left him alone in the toy department for just five minutes. None of the rest of the body was ever found. That child was quickly identified as Adam. The Walsh parents were not present at the morgue. But as Harris shows with photo comparisons, including public record police photos, it is very unlikely that the found child is actually Adam. The child is much more likely some other child, never properly identified, its parents never told. In a close-up of his famous "Missing" photo, Adam clearly and endearingly has neither top front tooth. John Walsh, in his book Tears of Rage, wrote that the photo was taken about a week before he disappeared. Adam's best friend said he last saw him a week or two before he disappeared and he still had neither top front tooth. Adam was gone two weeks when the child was found; the medical examiner who did the autopsy told the newspapers he thought the child may have been dead for all of that time. But a police photo of the found child clearly shows a buck tooth -- a top left adult central incisor. It was in "almost all the way," said a forensic anthropologist who for police took his own photos of the found child's skull. Could a child have grown in a top front tooth in anywhere close to only that little amount of time? Pediatric dentists say no. There is much, much more to the likely misidentification -- and the police's closing of the case on a likely wrong suspect. Harris has already presented much of the earlier part of the story on ABC Primetime, in The Miami Herald, and elsewhere. Now, read the full story that's been kept from public view until ...

Download or read book Concussion Inc. written by Irvin Muchnick and published by ECW Press. This book was released on 2015-02-01 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Inside the most controversial issue in sports Traumatic brain injury in football is not incidental, but an inevitable and central aspect of the sport. Starting in high school, through college, and into the NFL, young players face repeated head trauma, and those sustained injuries create lifelong cognitive and functional difficulties. Muchnick's Concussion Inc. blog exposed the decades-long cover-up of scientific research into sports concussions and the ongoing denial to radically reform football in North America. This compilation from Muchnick's no-holds-barred investigative website reveals the complete head injury story as it developed, from the doctor who played fast and loose with the facts about the efficacy of the state-mandated concussion management system for high school football players, to highly touted solutions that are more self-serving cottage industry than of any genuine benefit. Known for extensive reporting on the tragic story of the Chris Benoit murder-suicide, Muchnick turns his investigative analysis to traumatic brain injury and probes deep into the corporate, government, and media corruption that has enabled the $10-billion-a-year National Football League to trigger a public health crisis.

Book excerpt: “[An] account of the decades-long attempt to solve the murder of Adam Walsh . . . as relentlessly suspenseful as anything I’ve ever read.” —Dennis Lehane, author of Small Mercies Before Adam Walsh there were no faces on milk cartons, no Amber Alerts, no federal databases of crimes against children. The six-year-old’s 1981 abduction and murder in Hollywood, Florida—unsolved for more than a quarter of a century—forever changed America. His parents went on to become fierce advocates for missing children, and his father, John Walsh, served as host of America’s Most Wanted.

A taut, compelling and often touching book about a long march to justice.” —Scott Turow, author of Presumed Innocent “Compelling.” —Miami Herald “[A] page-turner . . . tough to forget.” —People “The definitive account.” —The Washington Post
Book Synopsis Programmed to Kill by : David McGowan
Download or read book Programmed to Kill written by David McGowan and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The specter of the marauding serial killer has become a relatively common feature on the American landscape. Reactions to these modern-day monsters range from revulsion to morbid fascination--fascination that is either fed by, or a product of, the saturation coverage provided by print and broadcast media, along with a dizzying array of books, documentary films, websites, and "Movies of the Week". The prevalence in Western culture of images of serial killers (and mass murderers) has created in the public mind a consensus view of what a serial killer is. Most people are aware, to some degree, of the classic serial killer 'profile.' But what if there is a much different 'profile'--one that has not received much media attention? In Programmed to Kill, acclaimed and always controversial author David McGowan takes a fresh look at the lives of many of America's most notorious accused murderers, focusing on the largely hidden patterns that suggest that there may be more to the average serial killer story than meets the eye. Think you know everything there is to know about serial killers? Or is it possible that sometimes what everyone 'knows' to be true isn't really true at all?
