  Organ Harvesting - The Black...

  Organ harvesting represents one of the most pressing and disturbing ethical challenges of our time. This practice involves the removal of organs from individuals, often without consent, for transplantation or sale on the black market. While organ transplantation has revolutionized modern medicine, saving countless lives, the dark underbelly of the industry reveals a stark contrast—one where human rights are systematically violated, and vulnerable populations are exploited. The global demand for organs far exceeds the legal supply, creating a lucrative black market that preys on the world’s most marginalized individuals.  
    
  Throughout history, organ transplantation has been hailed as a miraculous medical advancement, but the unintended consequences of this progress have given rise to a shadowy network of illegal activities. This network spans continents, involving organized crime syndicates, complicit healthcare professionals, and corrupt officials. Victims are often coerced, deceived, or forced into giving up their organs, leaving them physically and emotionally scarred. These individuals, frequently from impoverished or war-torn regions, become collateral damage in a system driven by desperation and profit.  
    
  At the heart of this issue lies a complex web of ethical, social, and economic dilemmas. The disparity between the demand and supply of organs has fueled an industry that operates beyond the reach of law enforcement. Many nations struggle to implement effective regulations, and international efforts to combat organ trafficking are hindered by jurisdictional and logistical challenges. Compounding the problem are cultural and religious beliefs, which can influence attitudes toward organ donation and exacerbate the shortage of legally available organs.

  With a round, open face and a penchant for tall tales, Matteo de Lorenzo resembled everyone's kindly uncle. But Uncle Marty, as he was known throughout the Genovese crime family, was one of the New York mob's top earners throughout the 1960s and '70s, the mastermind of a billion-dollar trade in stolen and counterfeit securities. 
   
   
    
  In the spring of 1972, de Lorenzo and his business partner, Vincent Rizzo, traveled to Europe to discuss a plan to launder millions of dollars' worth of phony securities. Shockingly, the plot involved Archbishop Paul Marcinkus, the scandal-plagued president of the Vatican Bank. Unbeknownst to de Lorenzo and Rizzo, however, the NYPD was already on the case—thanks to the work of Det. Joseph Coffey. 
   
   
    
  Coffey, the New York policeman who investigated the Lufthansa heist and took the Son of Sam's confession, learned of the scheme in a wiretap related to the attempted mob takeover of the Playboy Club in Manhattan. He worked tirelessly to trace the fraudulent stocks and bonds around the world and deep into the corridors of power in Washington, DC, and Rome. 
   
   
    
  Meticulously researched and relentlessly gripping, The Vatican Connection is a true story of corruption and deceit.

  Chained Birds: A Crimemoir is an author-narrated studio production of Carla Conti's award-winning true crime memoir. 
    
  FROM THE BACK COVER 
  After three years in Europe, former journalist Carla Conti just wanted to settle her family into the suburbs of Philadelphia. But her high school friend Scott Powell, a lawyer handling a brutal prison stabbing case, needed a favor. Before she knew it, Carla became part of the defense team and was mired in the terrifying world of federal prison gangs, penal abuse, and corruption.  
    
  Then, when she agreed to write a tell-all book on the violent machinations behind the court case—with Scott’s client as an inside source—the stakes turned deadly. Two different prison gangs issued “hit orders” against the prisoner she and Scott now considered a friend, and the journalist and defense attorney were imperiled by association. 
    
  CHAINED BIRDS: A CRIMEMOIR is the story of Carla’s 10-year journey to advocate for federal inmate Kevin Sanders and help him re-enter society after prison. But the mission came at a cost as Carla struggled to balance her own, Scott’s, and Kevin’s safety while writing an exposé on the horrific conditions that led to the shutdown of an experimental prison program in Lewisburg, Pennsylvania. 
    
  Part investigative thriller, part raw memoir, CHAINED BIRDS is a gripping exposé of systemic injustice and a powerful reminder of the resilience it takes to uncover the truth.
