Book Description
Investigate some of the most horrific but unheard-of tales of true crime in Unbelievable Crimes Volume Seven. In the seventh installment of this series, I’ll visit some twisted cases that expose the wickedness some humans are capable of. From savage attacks and kidnapping to homicidal teens, I’m delving deep into lesser-known crimes and unearthing the depravity of the relatively unheard-of criminals. When you think you can’t be shocked by true crime tales, think again. One such crime took place in 2017 in Lancashire, England. A young woman and her boyfriend were violently attacked for no other reason than their style of clothing. The beating they received was prolonged and brutal - simply because the couple wore gothic clothing. Another deviant crime I’ll cover is straight out of a thriller movie. A mother of two is savagely beaten by her abusive ex-husband, kidnapped, and taken to a storage unit. She’s locked inside and left to die in the damp, cold container. Can she escape before the freezing temperatures get her? Or will her violent ex succeed in his attempt to end her life? Then there’s the gruesome case of a businesswoman abducted in Scotland in 2011. She was tortured in unimaginable ways before her murder. But why, and who would feel such anger toward her that they’d put her through such a cruel ordeal before ending her life? Learn more about these crimes, as well as other lesser-known cases, in Unbelievable Crimes Volume Seven. Please remember that this book describes real-life violence, assaults, and murder. For those new to the series, Unbelievable Crimes is written by a former small-town journalist turned true crime enthusiast. The series tackles hard-to-hear true tales that evaded headline news (mostly) despite the (or perhaps because of) barbarity of the crime.

ISBN:
Category : True Crime
Languages : en
Pages : 107
Book Description
Step into some of the most heinous (yet relatively unknown) crimes ever committed and delve into twelve twisted tales of murder in Unbelievable Crimes. From the deplorable abduction and imprisonment of young women by James Jamelske, who kept his victims in his basement, to the tale of charismatic charmer Charles Schmid who boasted about his savage murders, each story dives into pure evil. I'll take you back to 1993, to the city of Houston, where two teenage girls, Jennifer Ertman and Elizabeth Peña, were brutally raped and murdered in a crime so brutal it shook the community. I'll cover the hard-to-hear but important information about the disturbing case as well as what became of the culprits. I'll also delve into the bizarre and twisted story of Carl Tanzler, a man who becomes fixated on a beautiful young woman. After her death, he kept her as a mummified corpse in his home for years, with a truly inexplicable outcome. You'll also be introduced to the gruesome story of Omaima Nelson, an Egyptian-American woman who killed her husband before proceeding to cook and eat parts of his body. While most people know about the incomprehensible acts of Ted Bundy, or the wicked crimes of "killer clown" John Wayne Gacy, there's an underbelly of true crime that has been less covered over the years. Some crimes had a fleeting news story, or a 30-second snippet on a local news station, and have since been long forgotten. These are the crimes we ought to remember, ensuring the victims don't get wiped from the annals of true crime history. Discover the dark side of humanity as we delve into some of the most shocking and twisted little-known true crime stories. To most, the senseless acts of violence and pure evil depicted in these cases are simply unimaginable. But, they're all somebody's reality. Please note, as with all true crime content, this book contains details that cover real life murders and violence.

Unbelievable Crimes Volume Five

ISBN:
Category : True Crime
Languages : en
Pages : 104
Book Description
Come with me to investigate some of the most unnerving tales of human wickedness in Unbelievable Crimes Volume Five. In the fifth installment of the series, I’ll take you deep into the shadows of true crime history to uncover a new selection of shocking crimes you may not have heard of before. From deranged kidnappings to murderous teenage gangs, this volume of Unbelievable Crimes will cover some truly twisted tales from truly wicked people. Discover the crimes of a master manipulator and cold-blooded killer who acted like an upstanding member of his community in Mesa, Arizona. When his horrific crimes came to light, no one could believe he was capable of such cruelty - but irrefutable DNA evidence proved otherwise. Retrace the harrowing saga of the Gallegos, a married couple who just so happened to be dangerous predators. The sadistic duo prowled the streets of California in the late 70s, searching for young victims to lure into their van before carrying out their depraved desires. I’ll cover the story behind the murder of Danielle Jones, a young life cut short in England in 2001. Sadly, her body was never found, but in an unusual twist, the case was cracked by analysis of text messages sent by the killer. Explore the tale of Armin Meiwes, a German man who craved human flesh. Not only did Armin act upon his macabre desire, but he also found a victim who was willing to be eaten. His twisted appetite would be satisfied - but a man would die in the process. Learn about a case so callous it defies belief: a British mother who killed her children in a sick act of filicide. Why? Because they got in the way of her dating life. Get to know about the devastating murder of a young girl whose killer escaped justice for over three decades. In the early 90s, Nikki Allan was horrifically and senselessly killed, and for years it seemed like her murderer would never be brought to justice. A new phenomenon of true crime sees historic crimes getting solved with new DNA capabilities. Therefore, criminals from years ago are now being brought to justice - this is one such case. Uncover these cases, as well as six more stories in Unbelievable Crimes Volume Five. Just like the previous books in this series, I do my best to ensure the victims’ suffering is remembered and the shameful actions of the criminals are highlighted. As with all the installments of this series, I’ll examine the darkest depths of human malice. I recount real-life cases of murder, violence, and unimaginable cruelty. Please bear this in mind before reading.

Author: Stefan Koldehoff
Publisher: Seven Stories Press
ISBN: 1644211203
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 351
Book Description
A thrilling, eye-popping look at true crime in the billion-dollar art world. The art world is one of the most secretive of global businesses, and the list of its crimes runs long and deep. Today, with prices in the hundreds of millions for individual artworks, and billionaires' collections among the most conspicuous and liquid of their assets, crime is more rampant than ever in this largely unregulated universe. Increased prices and globalization have introduced new levels of fraud and malfeasance into the art world--everything from "artnapping," in which an artwork is held hostage and only returned for a ransom, to forgery and tax fraud. However, the extent of the economic and cultural damage that results from criminality in the global art scene rarely comes to light. The stories of high-stakes, brazen art crimes told by art experts Stefan Koldehoff and Tobias Timm are by turns thrilling, disturbing, and unbelievable (the imagination for using art to commit crimes seems boundless). The authors also provide a well-founded analysis of what needs to change in the art market and at museums. From the authors of False Pictures, Real Money (about the Beltracchi art forgery case), Art and Crime includes a chapter on art owned by Donald Trump. It is a thoroughly researched, explosive, and highly topical book that uncovers the extraordinary and multifarious thefts of art and cultural objects around the world.
