Summary

Triad Structures Explored offers a deep dive into the clandestine world of Chinese Triads, examining their history, organizational structures, and impact on global crime. This book dissects how these criminal organizations have evolved from 17th-century resistance movements to modern transnational enterprises involved in activities from drug trafficking to political corruption. It reveals that Triads are not monolithic but rather dynamic networks with internal rivalries and shifting alliances. The book meticulously explores the Triads' internal mechanics, including their hierarchical arrangements and codes of conduct, providing a nuanced perspective often missed in traditional depictions. Readers will gain insights into the socio-political factors contributing to their resilience.

 
For example, the book highlights how periods of dynastic upheaval and economic reform have shaped Triad operations. Beginning with core concepts of Triad membership, the book progresses through the historical evolution of Triad societies, contemporary organizational structures, and diverse criminal activities. It concludes with an analysis of law enforcement challenges and recommendations for effective strategies. This comprehensive approach, grounded in law enforcement reports and academic research, makes it invaluable for academics, law enforcement, and anyone interested in understanding organized crime.

    As Seen on VICE TV's “The Devil You Know” Season 2 
    Ohio housewife Sherry Shriner grew to prominence as a social media cult leader, flourishing in the era of conspiracy theories and the 9/11 Truther movement. 
    She preached the virtues of mysterious orgone energy and Christian prayer as defensive shields against the forces of darkness, including Lucifer and his demons; reptilian shapeshifters masquerading as human elites; the New World Order; cell phone towers; even hostile UFOs that flamed out over her home, visible only as shooting stars. 
    Amazingly, she built a coterie of passionate devotees. The more outrageous the lie, the more fervent their belief. 
    In 2017, she told follower Steven Mineo that his girlfriend, Barbara Rogers, was a witch who would kill him. A month later, Steven was dead, and Barbara was in jail charged with his murder. 
    Steven’s death proved Sherry’s divinity to her followers, but in reality, he was just the latest casualty in a string of online trolling attacks that had left an earlier believer dead of suicide and still more cast into the outer darkness of cyberspace. 
    Journalist Tony Russo follows Sherry Shriner’s cult, digs into its bizarre beliefs, and reports on the shredded lives and reputations surrounding an otherwise-nondescript woman who transformed herself into a web-based evangelist. 
    The incredible story is documented in dogged reporting, surviving internet chats and transcripts, and voluminous police records.

    America has always preferred heroes who weren’t clean cut, an informal ode to the rugged individualism and pioneering spirit that defined the nation in previous centuries. The early 19th century saw the glorification of frontier folk heroes like Davy Crockett and Daniel Boone. After the Civil War, the outlaws of the West were more popular than the marshals, with Jesse James and Billy the Kid finding their way into dime novels. And at the height of the Great Depression in the 1930s, there were the “public enemies”, common criminals and cold blooded murderers elevated to the level of folk heroes by a public frustrated with their own inability to make a living honestly. 
    	Two months after Franklin D. Roosevelt’s inauguration in 1933, a petty thief who had spent almost a decade behind bars for attempted theft and aggravated assault was released from jail. By the end of the year, that man, John Dillinger, would be America’s most famous outlaw: Public Enemy Number One. From the time of his first documented heist in early July 1933, until his dramatic death in late July of the following year, he would capture the nation’s attention and imagination as had no other outlaw since Jesse James. 
    	The man who became Public Enemy Number One after the deaths of John Dillinger and Pretty Boy Floyd was Lester Joseph Gillis, whose alias “George Nelson” eventually gave way to the nickname “Baby Face Nelson”. Despite the almost playfully innocent nickname, and the fact that he was not as notorious as two of his partners in crime, Dillinger and Floyd, Baby Face Nelson was the worst of them all. In an era where the outlaws were glorified as Robin Hood types, Baby Face was a merciless outlier who pulled triggers almost as fast as he lost his temper. He was believed to have been responsible for the deaths of more FBI agents than anybody else in American history.
