Book Description
Anne and CC, the famous Spoon Sisters who track their antique hunting adventures in their popular blog, are flying home from a recent shopping spree in Paris. Anne finds herself seated next to a nervous gentleman, who becomes even more agitated during some major air turbulence and both he and Anne drop their bags in the aisle. However, that pales in comparison when the man is later found dead in the airplane's lavatory. Because the plane is full, the crew is forced to place the man's body back in his seat next to Anne. Upon deplaning, Anne hopes that's the last she'll have to think of the dead man and quickly begins planning what to do with all of the items she has found on her trip--far more than she has room to store in her small home. With her business partner CC on her case to unload most of her purchases, Anne is oblivious to the man stalking her

Democracide
Author: Nathaniel Gilbert
Publisher: AuthorHouse
ISBN: 1425959229
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 602
Book Description
Democracide tells how the government is killing our democracy by using crime, terrorism and Mid-East wars as an excuse to curtain our freedoms and deconstruct the Constitution. This book reveals how Washington has focused our attention on foreign wars to hide our real problems at home--crime, illicit drugs, poverty, immigration, the outsourcing of jobs, irresponsible corporate governance, the wage gap, inadequate healthcare and substandard public education. Underlying these problems is the development of a criminological culture based on violence, guns and "winning" at all costs. By becoming a crisis factory and self-appointed world policeman, the U.S. has lost thousands of American lives, brought the government to the edge of bankruptcy and earned the hatred of millions abroad. Unlike moment-to-moment news bulletins or magazine articles and books focused on a single subject, Democracide pulls all these developments together coherently so that readers can connect the dots and see how the web of power is endangering America. Most important, Democracide tells what we can do to save our democracy, restore our traditional liberties and bring back government integrity--without amending the Constitution or revolution.

Killer Data
Author: Enzo Yaksic
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1000567265
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 111
Book Description
Killer Data examines the phenomenon of serial murder using data collected from international sources to review offender patterning with a focus on contemporary cases. This type of attention will allow for a broader understanding of modern-day serial murderers and will help to dispel some of the myths that surround offenders. The current serial murder classification scheme incorrectly types serial murderers as supremely intelligent killing machines while discounting their socialization, experiences, and choices. This book exposes serial murderers as run-of-the-mill hometown losers, who brutalize women, and are lucky to escape apprehension. Like other atypical homicide offenders, modern-day serial murderers are propelled forward by a deep sense of entitlement, easy access to firearms, and a nonchalant attitude toward using murder to attain their goals. Readers should come away with a deeper understanding not of the ultra-rare or the "deadliest" serial murderers but of the more common offenders who pose a consistent threat to day-to-day life. The book utilizes the Consolidated Serial Homicide Offender Database, one of the largest and most robust open access databases of multiple murders available, presenting new thinking on areas such as: myths and stereotypes the impact of entertainment on the perception of serial murder inaccurate prevalence estimates spree/serial hybrid offenders the classification of two and three victim serial murderers how serial murderers pursue longevity the characteristics of aspiring serial murderers whether hit men and gang members are serial murderers if and why serial murder is in a state of decline how many serial murderers are responsible for the homicides that sent innocent people to prison luck as a factor of “success” for serial murderers. These findings are illustrated with 200 narrative vignettes of serial murder series that occurred between 2011 and 2021, such as Itzcoatl Ocampo, Charles Severance, Nikko Jenkins, and Pamela Hupp, offenders who may be unfamiliar to many but represent the next iteration of the serial murderer. Correcting decades of flawed assumptions about serial murderers, and written in an accessible and concise style, Killer Data is essential reading for students and scholars of criminal justice and criminology, law enforcement professionals, and the interested general reader.
