Book Description
In this provocative and eye-opening classic of investigative journalism, the #1 New York Times bestselling author and “America’s best true-crime writer” (Kirkus Reviews), Ann Rule, explores the nearly twenty-year long search for America’s most prolific and horrifying serial killer. In 1982, the body of Wendy Coffield is discovered floating near the sandy shore of Washington’s Green River. Authorities have no idea that this tragic and violent death is only the beginning of a string of murders that will rock and terrify the Seattle area for two decades. With her signature riveting prose and in-depth research, Ann Rule takes us behind the scenes of the search for the Green River Killer, a terrifying specter who ritualistically killed young women and eluded authorities for years. From seeking the help of incarcerated serial killer Ted Bundy to Ann Rule’s horrifying realization that the killer she was writing about had attended her book signings, Green River, Running Red is the suspenseful and unforgettable “definitive narrative of the brutal and senseless crimes that haunted the Seattle area for decades” (Publishers Weekly).

Defending Gary
Author: Mark Prothero
Publisher: John Wiley & Sons
ISBN: 0470370718
Category : True Crime
Languages : en
Pages : 590
Book Description
At first, Mark Prothero, Defense Attorney for Gary Ridgway, thought: "This can't be the Green River Killer! He's too ordinary! He's too small. He's too calm. He's too polite! He can't possibly have murdered forty-nine women. They can't be serious! They must have screwed up! I didn't realize then, but I was right. Gary Ridgway hadn't killed forty-nine women. He'd killed even more than that." Soon, Mark Prothero faced the question: "How could you possibly defend the most prolific serial killer in United States history, the infamous Green River Killer? If anyone deserved to be executed for his crimes, didn't he?" Mark Prothero, co-lead defense attorney who helped save Gary Ridgway from the death sentence, has heard that question many times. Now he’s written a book that reveals the true, inside story of exactly how an idealistic public defender, high school swim coach, husband, and dad could bring himself to spend many months of close confinement with a man who brutally murdered at least 75 young women, often in the act of sex. Defending Gary shows how Prothero could reconcile these monstrous acts knowing the reality of this unassuming fellow Gary Ridgway, a mild-mannered, church-going, devoted husband, father, and former Navy man, with an IQ of around 82 and a longtime job as a truck painter from Auburn, Washington, near Seattle.

Green River Killer
Author: Jeff Jensen
Publisher: Dark Horse Comics
ISBN: 1616558121
Category : Green River Valley (King County, Wash.)
Languages : en
Pages : 241
Book Description
Throughout the 1980s, the highest priority of Seattle-area police was the apprehension of the Green River Killer, the man responsible for the murders of dozens of women. In 1990, with the body count numbering at least 48, the case was put in the hands of a single detective, Tom Jensen. After 20 years, when the killer was finally captured with the help of DNA technology, Jensen spent 180 days interviewing Gary Leon Ridgway in an effort to learn his most closely held secrets - an epic confrontation with evil that was every bit as disturbing and surreal as can be humanly imagined.

Summary of Ann Rule's Green River, Running Red
Author: Everest Media,
Publisher: Everest Media LLC
ISBN:
Category : True Crime
Languages : en
Pages : 61
Book Description
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The Pac HiWay was a highway that connected Seattle to Tacoma, and it has changed constantly over the years. It began as Highway 99, and then it was Old 99 when the I-5 Freeway opened. Some spots are called Pacific Highway South, except where it passes the Seattle-Tacoma International Airport, where it has become International Parkway. #2 The strip became a local roadway, full of businesses that catered to those who flew in or lived and worked nearby. The Little Church by the Side of the Road was still there, and so was The Pancake Chef and the Lewis and Clark Theater. #3 On August 12, 1982, another woman’s body was found in the Green River, south of Seattle. It was difficult to determine where she had gone into the river, but her corpse had been trapped in a net of tree branches and logs. #4 The woman in the river was identified as Debra Bonner, a prostitute who had recently made a precarious living on Pacific Highway South. She had been arrested twice for offering sex for money. She had told her friends that she was freelancing, working the circuit from Portland to Tacoma to Seattle to Yakima and Spokane.
