Book Description
The Bully Killer describes the life of Big Bull Chaney, the worst bully in Texas/New Mexico history, his upbringing and his lowlife associates who raise hell at a nightclub in El Paso called Wild Eyes. Bull Chaney started with bad genetics-his vicious parents, and began his criminal hobby of bullying in elementary school. Raised in an atmosphere of outrageous cruelty against animals, with his uncle Jeeter running an organized dog fighting ring, Big Bull Chaney grows to be close to seven feet tall and over 300 pounds. He inherits a beer distributorship from his father who bought it with pirated funds, and who is unexpectedly killed while choking an outlaw biker at Wild Eyes. Bull has many successes in bullying other men; however, his luck turns bad when, at an international festival in El Paso, he confronts a giant Viking strongman and a Kung Fu expert from Asia, and he realizes that either of these men could easily destroy him! His ego having suffered major damage, he resolves to find someone that very day on whom he can take out his rage and wrath. While still at the festival, he sees Nikos Diamantopoulos, a 14-year old boy, dressed in an ethnic Greek costume from a closed era, something like a Scottish kilt. The costume infuriates Bull who, with his cowboy, blue jeans, and monster truck mentality, vows to catch Nikos and deal him a severe lesson. Bull finds Nikos walking home through a dark neighborhood and sets two of his killer dogs on the boy, who is badly injured, yet saved from death by his brave dog Rocket, who arrived and diverted the violence to himself. Bull leaves Nikos atop a fire ant mound, worsening his injuries. By means of a fortunate chain of events, a high tech medicine man, Ray Singing Fire, who has boyhood debts to two Greeks, enters the picture and vows to right things for Nikos. Unfortunately for Big Bull Chaney, Singing Fire has many of the same Kung Fu skills as Chang Tien Ming, one of the men who made Bull back away at the El Paso festival. Singing Fire corners Bull at Wild Eyes and, in front of his own criminal associates, gives Bull a gut wrenching lesson about stinging insects, feeling this appropriate retribution for the many fire ant stings Nikos took. Additionally, Singing Fire does major damage to Bull's beer distributorship, causing a steep decline in sales through a clandestine mailing to its customers. Now the angriest man on earth, Bull plans revenge on the Indian medicine man, but cannot locate him. An effort to find Nikos also failed. In frustration, Bull journeys to Eagle Pass, Texas, to visit uncle Jeeter about the problem, who then consults with the Chaney family attorney, Wade Blankenship. The lawyer calls a Mafia phone number, and arranges to bring in a Greek speaking gangster to act as a spy to locate Nikos. With the confidence of Nikos clergyman gained, the spy locates Nikos, who is then kidnapped, along with his doctor and his parents. A video of the victims being menaced by Bull's killer dogs is sent to the Greek Orthodox priest, who then contacts Singing Fire at his reclusive New Mexico home. The medicine man must devise a way to save the victims from Big Bull Chaney, who plans to execute them by dog mauling at a secretive dog fighting site in remote West Texas, in full view of around 100 criminals invited from all over the United States. The climax of chapter 5 illustrates that those who are wantonly violent usually encounter someone they cannot face, as Bull dies under the claws and teeth of the medicine man's wolverine, a weapon he desperately tries to avoid using. Chapter 6 depicts Bull suffering in hell, the fate unquestionably awaiting all bullies, but it also details the restoration of Nikos to a normal life through regenerative medicine; portrays his dog Rocket at the gates of heaven; and his new companion dog, Rocket II, graciously arranged for his by the veterinarian, Ed Landerholme, who was able to salva

Too Pretty to Live

Category : True Crime
Languages : en
Pages : 315
Book Description
Murder begins with the click of a button in this true crime story of Facebook, catfishing and deadly jealousy—as seen on Investigation Discovery. Chris was a CIA agent worried for the safety of Jenelle Potter. Contacting her parents and boyfriend, Chris warned them that Billy Payne and Billie Jean Hayworth were bullying Jenelle online and posed an imminent, physical threat. Something needed to be done, Chris said. And he’d have their backs if they took action to protect Jenelle. And so they did. Jenelle’s father and boyfriend murdered Payne and Hayworth in their own home—mercifully leaving the couple’s infant unharmed. But when they told their story to the police, they discovered a devastating truth: there was no Chris. It had been Jenelle the entire time, catfishing them to exact revenge over a Facebook feud. Using forensic linguistics and diving through the brambles that Jenelle laid to cover her tracks, police were able to put together a chilling portrait of a sociopath who set a double murder in motion from the shadows of the internet. Dennis Brooks, the lead prosecutor in this strange and tragic case, examines the crime and trial from all angles in Too Pretty to Live. What the police investigation turned up, though, made this crime all the more terrifying. Jenelle had been Chris the entire time, catfishing her family and her boyfriend to act in vengeance on her behalf. Using forensic linguistics and diving through the brambles that Jenelle laid to cover her tracks, police were able to put together a chilling portrait of a sociopath, made all the more ruthless by the anonymity of her online life. Bizarre and unforgettable, Dennis Brooks examines the crime and trial from all angles, bringing his expertise as the lead prosecutor in the strange and disturbing case.

The Gates of Janus
Author: Ian Brady
Publisher: Feral House
ISBN: 1627310142
Category : True Crime
Languages : en
Pages : 487
Book Description
Ian Brady and Myra Hindley's spree of torture, sexual abuse, and murder of children in the 1960s was one of the most appalling series of crimes ever committed in England, and remains almost daily fixated upon by the tabloid press. In The Gates of Janus, Ian Brady himself allows us a glimpse into the mind of a murderer as he analyzes a dozen other serial crimes and killers. Criminal profiling by a criminal was not invented by the dramatists of Dexter. Novelist and true-crime writer Colin Wilson, author of the famous and influential book The Outsider, remarks in his introduction to Brady's book that one must first explore the depraved reaches of human consciousness to truly understand human character. When first released in 2001, The Gates of Janus sparked controversy attended by a huge media splash. The new edition, the first in paperback, provides the reader with a decade and a half of updates, including Brady's letters to the publisher, both providing information regarding his own demented history along with demands that Feral House remove its unflattering afterword written by author Peter Sotos.

Bully is a riveting, harrowing account of adolescent rage and bloody revenge—a true crime story from 1993 that inspired the 2001 feature film. Bobby Kent was a bully—a steroid-pumped 20-year-old who dominated his peers in their comfortable, middle-class Ft. Lauderdale beach community through psychological, physical, and sexual abuse. But on a summer night in 1993, Bobby was lured to the edge of the Florida everglades with a promise of sex and drugs ... and was never seen alive again. The tormentor had become the victim in a bizarre and brutal act of vengeance carried out with ruthless efficiency and cold-blooded premeditation by seven of his high school acquaintances—including his lifelong best friend—and instigated by one overweight, underloved teenager who believed her life would be perfect ... if only Bobby Kent were dead.
