Gang member "Hustleman," the school bookie, had a plan that worked every football season - take all the bets in the stands before each game and give the quarterback "Blaze" the nod on the field to kick the offense into high gear. It was a working operation until two Withrow Tigers defensive players took one sucker bet from Hustleman and realized they had been taken. Waiting in the dark after the game, two dark figures rob and kill Hustleman for the cash and word on the street was two Withrow players did it, and the Bulldogs wanted revenge and some Faire Exchange in a bloody street war that took the game of high school football to another level that left a lot of young bodies lying dead in the streets of Cincinnati. Life is a gamble, so be careful of the choices you make

It's A Family Tradition leads us back to the mountain where the sheriff serves a bench warrant for non-appearance in court. the mountain feels the explosion and underneath the rubble is a story of abuse, betrayal and revenge.

On a predestined path, two unlikely strangers come face to face with a looming evil on a lonely two-lane Colorado mountain highway.

This story has to do with the final Will of a man named Mornington, who, in the year 1900, left behind the sum of $400 million francs. Of that, three fourths went to his adopted country which left $100 million francs to be distributed to his heirs. The executor of the estate was Mornington's friend, Don Luis Perenna (AKA Clotaire Chantal ). The problem, however, was that no one knew where (or even who) some of the heirs were. If no heirs were to be found within 3 months, the entire $100 million francs would go to Perenna. And Perenna/Chantal had a reputation as being something of a rogue. It is definitely a race against time, as the heirs seem to be turning up dead at an alarming rate.

The scariest thing about serial killers is that they are actual people. Tiago Henrique Gomes da Rocha is among Brazil's most prolific serial killers. This is his story. Look at how far a human can go into the depth of heinous crimes.For Brazil, Tiago Henrique Gomes da Rocha is the monster in the deceptive mask, the handsome man with the suave persona that fooled so many. He is a good-looking young man, 6'4" with brown hair and brown eyes, who is considered a decent person by those who know him. Although he was a quiet child, and he kept to himself even in adulthood, he had all the physical qualities that women find attractive. Unfortunately, this fact undoubtedly helped him become the most murderous serial killer the city of Goiânia, in Brazil, had ever known.As a security guard, he was a man trained and paid to protect people. Yet, by the time he was 29, Gomes da Rocha had murdered some 39 people and committed at least 90 armed robberies. His demeanor and lifestyle aroused no suspicions, and his nightmare rampage lasted four years before he was finally caught.His good looks and unassuming personality were not the only reason he got away with his crimes for so long. His murder victims were random; his modus operandi fluctuated between stabbing, shooting, and choking; and his favored outfit made identifying him difficult. Dressed all in black, wearing a black helmet and riding a black motorcycle with stolen license plates, he easily avoided identification, and he never hinted that he could possibly have a dark side to anyone who knew him.Scroll back up and order your copy now!

THIS IS THE STORY OF NJWEEDMANS 2017 - 2018 Persecution trial.

Long regarded as a possible Jack the Ripper suspect, the Victorian poet Francis Thompson lived in London at the time of the Whitechapel murders, and may have had motive, means and opportunity to commit at least some of those horrific crimes. At one time, he even lived with a prostitute who subsequently disappeared. Considering known facts about Thompson's life and personality, and searching for clues in the darker corners of his poetry, Simon Webb's new book offers a balanced view of the case for Jack the Poet. Simon has also written 'American Jack', about the Ripper's links to the United States, and 'Severin', a Ripper novel.

What do you do when you have struggled loyally for years beside your husband, living in financial hardship as you bring up your joint children virtually as a single mother, working toward the good times that you can see coming for all of you, only to discover that your husband is committing adultery and is planning to leave you?Worse, he aggressively denies his affair, denouncing you as crazy to your face and to everyone you know, while he schemes to walk off with everything you have worked so hard for as he is reborn into a new life with a star-struck younger woman, as pretty as you once were, who will enjoy everything you have invested in - your financial security, your home-life and even your children.Worse still, he is a notoriously hard-ball lawyer with every intention of crushing you in any way he can, of erasing you from his life, of reducing you to nothing, so that he can move on as if you never existed.Daniel T.

In 1985 Leonard Lake and Charles Chi-tat Ng were suspected of killing over a dozen people. All this only came to light after both of them were caught for shoplifting in South San Francisco and Lake, rather than face being imprisoned, committed suicide. Charles Ng fled to Canada to avoid getting arrested and became a fugitive. After this happened, Ng was instantly labeled as the son from Hell, a sadistic monster, a killing machine and a cold-blooded killer who microwaved a baby.A six-year legal battle between Canada and the United States ended in September 1991 with Ng's extradition to California to face trial on 12 murder charges. Incarcerated in Canada, Ng educated himself about American laws so that he was able to manipulate the legal system to delay his trial, which finally began in October, 1998. Millions of taxpayer dollars were spent bringing Ng to justice. In July, 1999 Charles Chi-Tat Ng was convicted of murdering eleven people (six men, three women, and two babies) in one of California's most gruesome, terrifying, torture killing sprees.Conducting a series of interviews inside the walls of California State Prison at Folsom while Charles Ng awaited trial, and later at San Quentin Prison Valerie Lee asked the questions that everyone wanted to ask and heard the answers that Ng gave or evaded.

tony manshino was living a life right out of an episode of miami vice. life was good, the chick were better. from hustling cocaine to stolen cars, by any means necessary the money had to be made. the gangsters were always waiting for you to slip, because they were always ready to relieve you of your goods. miami was a melting pot of gangsters and hustlers living in a mafia movie; and the cops and fbi was never far behind, lurking and hope to spoil your american dreams. and for that dream haitians yearn for it. from hustling since the age of 10, to voodoo rituals, to becoming a boss, to becoming a billboard top 10 artist to vacationing in federal prison and rubbing shoulders with top corrupted political officials in haiti.

They were two of the most notorious and controversial murder trials of the last twenty-five years, splitting American public opinion in half.Before dawn on November 5, 1989, Betty Broderick got into her car and drove over to the house in San Diego of her lawyer ex-husband, Daniel T. Broderick III, and his new wife, Linda. Arriving at 5:30 a.m., she used a key that she had obtained from one of her children to enter the house by a back door and climbed the stairs to Dan and Linda's bedroom. Five shots rang out in the dark, three hitting their targets. Linda died instantly. Dan lingered on for several minutes. As he tried to call for help, Betty stamped on his hand and tore the phone from the wall.The prosecution claimed it was as about as clear a case of premeditated murder as anyone could imagine. Betty claimed she had gone over to the house to talk to Dan - or maybe to commit suicide in front of him - but when someone shouted, 'Call the police', she got flustered and started firing.Betty Broderick was acquitted of first degree murder in her second trial but found guilty of second degree murder.To some, Betty Broderick is virtually the patron saint of the sanctity of marriage, executing her abusive, cheating husband and his 'nineteen year old college dropout of a Polack whore' (actually Linda was twenty-eight, a college graduate and a professional paralegal). To others, Dan Broderick suffered his wife's abuse of him for fourteen years of marriage, left her well provided for and then married the love of his life, only to be continually stalked for seven years, to have Betty repeatedly incite his children to kill him and Linda, to find her driving her car through the front door of his new house, and then to be murdered in the coldest of blood.Bella Stumbo's account of the Dan, Linda and Betty Broderick affair is encyclopedic and definitive, and 'Until the Twelfth of Never' was a runaway international bestseller when it was first published twenty years ago, as well as winning an Edgar Award. Bello Stumbo herself died in 2002, so was not alive to cover Betty Broderick's parole hearing in 2010, a short account of which is included in this book.Dan Broderick, Linda Broderick and Betty Broderick - saints or sinners? Betty Broderick - sane or insane? Read 'Until the Twelfth of Never' and you will certainly have an opinion.(Contains new material - interviews with Dan Broderick's friend and an analysis of Betty Broderick's handwriting.)

A century ago, the peaceful, picturesque village of Assinippi, Massachusetts, became the focus of national attention after retired U.S. Navy Rear Admiral Joseph Giles Eaton was found dead in his bedroom. An autopsy revealed the presence of a fatal dose of arsenic. Authorities launched an investigation, and less than three weeks after the admiral's death they arrested his wife, Jennie May Eaton, for his murder. She later stood trial in Plymouth County Superior Court where an all-male jury decided her fate. The prominence of the admiral in military and social circles, the scandalous nature of the charges, and the rare indictment of a woman for a capital crime generated extensive press coverage. It was the era of sensationalism when newspapers, all vying to increase their circulations, splashed dramatic headlines, photographs, and sketches across their front pages. The Eaton case captivated people across the country for eight months in 1913. This book is a nonfictional account of the events leading up to Admiral Eaton's death, the ensuing investigation and trial, and the tragic aftermath. Newspaper stories, court records, town histories, census returns, vital records, genealogical records, military records, archival manuscripts, and other documentary evidence are among the sources the author used to tell the story of this significant chapter in the nation's history.

In the latter half of the 1800s, widespread suspicion and anxiety emerged when wives of all ages and social status were accused of killing their husbands with poison. However, what seemed like a massive spike in murderous wives across the United Kingdom and United States may not have been a spike at all, but rather a poison panic caused by hungry newspapers and mass hysteria. This work explores several high-profile cases of women on trial for murdering their husbands with poison. Lust, money and power were often central to the accusations, and the sensational news coverage set off a century-long witch hunt. No woman was safe from suspicion during this untold chapter in the history of crime.
