    Law enforcement do not often look to older women when they are seeking out suspects. For two decades, this fact kept Tamara Samsonova off the radar of police investigators. In photographs, she's a thin, frail woman with a mess of blond-brown hair and watery brown eyes. The wrinkles on her face and hands and reminiscent of any innocent old woman off the street. Tamara Samsonova looks as benign as the old woman next door who used to let you play in her yard when you were a child. The shocking reality of Tamara Samsonova, however, is much darker and more twisted than investigators and the general public could possibly imagine. The media took to calling her "The Granny Ripper", and the nickname is not unwarranted.

    A Promise Too Big is a captivating memoir that speaks to the indomitable human spirit of never giving up. It is an inspiring story of how a young man, against all odds, found ways to overcome overwhelming adversities to fulfil a precious promise. At 13 years old in 2010, Josues settled in a council estate in a small town in County Kildare with no English. He moved to Ireland with his brother, Chris (15 years old at the time) to join their family. He made a promise to his mother and grandmother that he will one day hold a university degree at all cost, as he left them at the airport in the Democratic Republic of Congo. In 2015, he discovered he had been abandoned, made homeless and left to fend for himself with just ¿65 to his name. Chris became homeless in 2014 when he was kicked out of their home. The brothers told themselves that they couldn't afford to fail. They picked themselves up and relied on those around them including strangers for support in their pursuit of higher education.In his pursuit of his third level education, he found refuge among drug and alcohol addicts in Dublin's inner city, impoverished areas of Dublin. He found place of solace among those rejected by society. In order to stay financially afloat, he desperately searched for job opportunities. The turning point in his life occurred when he was contacted by McDonald's for an interview, marking the beginning of a new chapter. However, with the sudden loss of his university grant, he had to rely on the income from his job at McDonald's to sustain himself as well as finance the last two years of his university education by himself. Despite the demands of pursuing full-time studies, he balanced a full-time job alongside his academic commitments.In 2019, Josues graduated with a first-class honours in Microbiology from University College Dublin. In 2019, straight after graduation, he joined PwC Ireland, the largest professional services firm in the country, as a graduate associate in their tax department. In 2022, he qualified as a chartered tax adviser (CTA) with the Irish Tax Institute. CTA is the leading tax advisory qualification in Ireland for tax professionals. In 2023, he joined Apple, one of the largest company in the world by market cap, as an indirect tax analyst.The story is an ode to the power of hope and perseverance, and how the smallest opportunities can change one's life. It is a story of unwavering determination and resilience where one's aspirations are pursued through countless sacrifices and unyielding hard work, but begs the question: at what cost?This book will take you on an emotional rollercoaster and leave you inspired.

    Many years ago I befriended a family who became the subject of one of Western Australia's most enduring and perplexing missing persons mysteries.Ask any investigator, be they a detective or journalist who has looked into this case, and all will tell you their questions have been met with a curious silence regarding those involved. It is like you are standing on the edge of a cliff throwing rocks into a deep dark chasm - you hear the stones bounce off the walls but you don't hear them hit the bottom. You call out but no one answers. You peer over the edge but see only darkness.Sometimes the only way you are going to get the full story is to jump off that cliff. This writer can relay what is down there but he won't, because from where you stand you will only misunderstand him and perhaps even call him a liar.What I do ask is that you now jump with me. It's the only way you might come to make sense of what I'm about to tell you.

    MIAS STEMME er en skildring af livet med en multihandicappet datter. Forfatteren fortæller indlevende og åbenhjertigt om sorgen, håbet, afmagten og ikke mindst vreden. Fortællingen beskriver den kronisk dårlige samvittighed og ikke mindst den uovervindelige kærlighed, som kendetegner forholdet mellem mor og datter.Bogen tager udgangspunkt i den fatale fødsel og fører læseren igennem klagesag, erstatning, kontakten med offentlige myndigheder, sønderrivende sygehusindlæggelser, uendelige mængder medicin og endelig den frygtede, men uundgåelige institutionsanbringelse. Læseren inviteres til et indblik i et liv, hvor stillingtagen til livsforlængende behandling for et seksårigt barn er påkrævet, hvor døden i årevis er en forventelig daglig gæst, og hvor det at samle på gode oplevelser bliver et essentielt holdepunkt i tilværelsen.MIAS STEMME er en fortælling om dét at tage sin skæbne på sig, og den udfordrer de almenkendte værdier og sætter fundamentale etiske dilemmaer på dagsordenen.

    The Stadium Steps is actually two tales. It¿s the story of a probation officer, the son of a slain police officer, raised by his mother and a parish priest who becomes a surrogate father to the boy. But Father Iggy is more than a paternal figure in the life of Michael O¿Shea. The priest becomes his boxing coach and, at an early age, may have sowed the seeds for the traumatic brain injury which leads to O¿Sheäs placement in a medical facility for patients with brain trauma. O¿Shea soon finds that all is not as it appears in the Pacific Dunes Rehabilitative Hospital, and like the carpenter who can¿t bring herself to hire someone else to repair a broken piece of furniture, O¿Shea takes matters into his own hands. At the end of the day, The Stadium Steps is a morality tale, so at its conclusion, like these characters, you ask the same question: ¿What would you do if you were Michael Ignatius O¿Shea?¿

    Accounts of an abusive Catholic priest, a nun questioning her vows, a missing girl reported to the Church rather than the police. A body chewed to nothing by wildlife. A second murder, with links to the first. Nearly forty years after her death, police in Baltimore are no closer to finding the culprit in the disturbing case of Catherine Cesnik than they were back in 1969.Was she simply the victim of a robbery gone wrong? Had she been sexually assaulted, then killed, her body left to rot on the wastelands of the most run-down part of the city? Or was the case connected with a priest, later accused of crimes against the young, whose actions were about to be revealed?

    After leaving a movie in Jersey City, Shannan kissed her boyfriend, Alex Diaz, goodbye. She had received a call out from a client in Oak Beach and promised to come back the next day. Diaz was not worried about her since she had a driver who acted as her security, pocketing half of Shannan's earnings. Shannan called her driver, Michael Pak, and the two drove off from Jersey City at around 10 p.m. that night. Pak drove into the gated community at around 2 a.m., parking outside the client's home to wait out Shannan's appointment. He watched as she walked up to the door, and then settled in his seat to wait for her to come out so he could drive her back home. Sometime after 4 a.m., Pak saw Shannan running out of the house, seemingly scared and acting irrational. She kept stating that the client wanted to kill her, and kept running when Pak tried to help. She was on the phone telling the person on the other side "They're trying to kill me!" Pak drove slowly in the community, trying to follow Shannan's screams and cries. He had never seen her behave like this before, so he assumed it may have something to do with drugs. Shannan, who was on the phone with 911 at the time, ran around the neighborhood looking for someone to help her. When she saw a light on in one of the houses, she ran to the door and began knocking frantically, screaming for help. What happened to Shannan that night?

Однако после десяти лет напряженных судебных разбирательств Высокий суд Дели назначил арбитра.

    HE STARTED WITH HIS WIFE...'Michelle was extremely loyal, ' said her close friend, Debbie Knight, 'she was giving, she was caring, she was dedicated. An amazing woman.'Lisa Emmons concurred. 'Michelle was fun so smart and organized, 'It had been a long time since her many friends had seen the successful executive, or even heard from her. In Michelle's case, a long time being more than a couple of days. That was unusual, in fact so strange that these friends began to worry. In the end, tensions rose, and Debbie decided that she had to visit. The increasingly alarmed messages that she had left on Michelle's answer phone had not been answered, and the probability that something bad had happened to her friend could be ignored no longer. Even so, none of these concerned women could have had the slightest idea of the extremes of violence they would discover all done by the hands of the unassuming Charlie Brandt. This story and more are featured in this anthology of True Crime.
