  Today, you will be introduced to three sick serial killers. Their biographies will be summarized and explained. The said individuals are as follows: 
  Ted Bundy - Ted Bundy was one of the most infamous rapists and sexual predators, necrophiles, and murderers in the western part of the United States. Having been abused in his childhood and fed pornographic material from an early age, his crimes became more daring, violent, and vicious as he got a thrill from dismembering or sexually tormenting one victim after another. 
  At the end of his life, after several escapes from prison, he was convicted and got the electric chair. Even then, despite his confessions, his manipulative ways seemed to have so much influence on the women he had dated, that many still proclaimed their love for him and were sad to see him leave this world. 
  Al Capone - Al Capone was an infamous mob boss between the two world wars, in the city of New York and surrounding areas. His name and style have been emulated in movies. The mass shootings, tax evasion, and revenge on Italian murders in the mafia gangs on the United States east coast were so notorious that they have become iconic and stereotyped. 
  How did Al Capone get the scars on his face? How did he manage to control so much of the gangs in the cities? How was he able to bribe the police, evade taxes, and become a terror for anyone who opposed him? And how did his life finally come to an end? 
  Jack the Ripper - Jack the Ripper was an unknown serial killer active in the mainly poor parts around the Whitechapel district of London in the year 1888. In both the criminal case files and modern journalistic books, the killer was referred to as the Whitechapel Killer and Leather Apron. 
  He caused quite some havoc, going after some of the most impoverished neighborhoods and killing victim after victim, without ever being found.

  Psychopaths - Unraveling the...

  Psychopathy is a personality disorder characterized by a lack of empathy, manipulative behavior, and a disregard for social norms. While often associated with violent criminals, not all psychopaths engage in illegal activities. Many live among us, blending into society while exhibiting traits that set them apart. Understanding psychopathy requires examining its defining characteristics, how it differs from other disorders, and how it has been studied over time. 
  At the core of psychopathy is a profound emotional deficit. Psychopaths struggle to feel deep emotions such as guilt, remorse, or love. While they can mimic emotions to manipulate others, their reactions are often shallow and insincere. This emotional disconnect allows them to deceive, exploit, and harm others without experiencing the moral conflicts that most people do. Their ability to charm and manipulate makes them particularly dangerous, as they can easily gain trust and control over those around them. 
  A common misconception is that psychopathy and sociopathy are the same. While they share some similarities, they are distinct disorders. Psychopaths are typically more calculated, controlled, and charismatic. They can function in society, often excelling in careers that require persuasion and risk-taking. Sociopaths, on the other hand, are more impulsive and prone to emotional outbursts, making it harder for them to maintain stable relationships or careers. These differences highlight why some psychopaths remain undetected, while sociopaths are more likely to be caught for reckless behavior.

  John Gilligan is no altar boy, by his own admission. 
   
  One of Ireland's most infamous criminals and drug lords, and widely believed in the court of public opinion to have ordered the cold-blooded murder of crime reporter Veronica Guerin, he remains a defiant figure. 
   
  In this remarkable book—the first of its kind—journalist Jason O'Toole distills hours of sensational face-to-face, no-holds-barred interviews with the feared criminal into a fast-paced and jaw-dropping account of the Irish gangland scene. And Gilligan doesn't mince his words. ‘I didn't believe in God, but I know I'm going to hell.' 
   
  Starting out as a petty thief in Dublin, Gilligan rose to the status of crime lord earning £10 million from drugs within his first two years. He mixed with ‘the General' Martin Cahill, with Gerry ‘The Monk' Hutch and with John Traynor. He was deeply involved with money laundering, miraculously survived an assassination attempt, and it is said he has millions of euro stashed away at a secret location, for future use. 
   
  O'Toole demands answers from Gilligan for all the hard questions; some of his responses will make readers shiver. Gilligan knew that laying all his cards on the table could mean signing his own arrest warrant... or worse. But he has done it here. And with a cast of all the country's deadliest underworld figures, this exposé is nothing short of explosive.

  He thought the nightmare was over, but nearly twenty years later, "the most terrible Mafioso in Ukraine" was back. 
   
   
   
  This book is not just a memoir but a confession. In 1994, author Sergey Maidukov accepted an "exciting business offer" from Samvel Martirosyan, later renowned as one of the most brutal and indomitable leaders of the Ukrainian Mafia. Maidukov quickly discovered that his job as "president" of a newly created business was actually a front for Mafia activities. Despite regular attempts to extricate himself, he was told that it was too late in no uncertain terms. Thus ensued five adrenaline-fueled years in a long-term apprenticeship with the Mafia underground. 
   
   
   
  Deadly Bonds: Five Years Inside the Ukrainian Mafia provides a deep look at the Mafia family that dominated the twentieth century post-Soviet state and how it brewed conditions of economic, political, and moral catastrophe.
