The Hidden Predator

Pasquale De Marco

Sinossi

Journey into the dark recesses of human depravity with this gripping exploration of the Yorkshire Ripper case. This comprehensive and meticulously researched book delves into the mind of a serial killer who terrorized the United Kingdom in the late 1970s and early 1980s, leaving a trail of shattered lives in his wake.

Through a chilling examination of Peter Sutcliffe's early life, psychological profile, and modus operandi, this book paints a disturbing portrait of a man whose twisted psyche led him down a path of unimaginable violence. It explores the factors that shaped his monstrous behavior, from his troubled childhood to his descent into darkness.

Beyond the horrifying details of Sutcliffe's crimes, this book also examines the societal and institutional failures that allowed him to evade capture for far too long. It delves into the challenges faced by law enforcement in the face of a seemingly unstoppable predator and the profound impact his reign of terror had on the victims, their families, and the communities they lived in.

This book is not merely a chronicle of horror; it is a cautionary tale that exposes the darkness lurking beneath the surface of seemingly ordinary lives. It raises profound questions about the nature of evil, the limits of justice, and the resilience of the human spirit. By delving into the depths of Sutcliffe's depravity, we hope to shed light on the darkest corners of the human psyche and gain a deeper understanding of the forces that drive individuals to commit unspeakable acts of violence.

With its compelling narrative, meticulous research, and thought-provoking insights, this book provides a comprehensive and nuanced examination of one of the most notorious serial killers in British history. It is a must-read for anyone interested in true crime, psychology, and the dark side of human nature.

Robert Kennedy - JFK: The Death...

Albert Jack

From the bestselling author of Pop Goes the Weasel, Red Herrings, New World Order, 9/11 Conspiracy and many more.
Robert Kennedy, JFK and the Death of Marilyn Monroe.
Who Didn't Kill Them?
For five decades the world has been told that the killers of John F Kennedy and his brother Bobby were either already dead or languishing in prison.
Lee Harvey Oswald was shot the day after the assassination but the Warren Commission, set up to investigate the brutal murder of the President, insists that he did. And that he acted alone. Details in this essay prove beyond doubt that the small piece of evidence that could prove it one way or another has never been revealed.
And Sirhan Sirhan, the young Palestinian currently residing at the Richard J. Donovan Correctional Facility in San Diego County, California, could not have killed Bobby Kennedy either. The evidence, never released until now, prove conclusively that he could not have fired the fatal bullets.
And as for their shared lover, Marilyn Monroe? Well, much debate has been had about her untimely death. Was it the CIA? Was it the FBI? Were the Kennedy's themselves responsible, or the Mafia, who also had good reason to silence the dumb blonde?
Well, the truth about the death of the Twentieth-Century's most famous actress will surprise many people as further evidence emerges about that untimely event too.
This book may be short but it is a great read and will inspire anybody to do their own research into the three of the most famous (and linked) deaths in history. And each with their own conspiracy theories.
This is part of Albert Jack's Mysterious World Series

Jailing the Johnstown Judge -...

Bruce Siwy

In 1988, Judge Joe O'Kicki was regarded by his peers as one of the most brilliant legal minds in the United States. He was newly remarried, sworn in as the president judge of a Pennsylvania county and on the fast track to a federal bench . . .  
 
 
 
Silently, however, a state police vice unit was in the midst of covert operation into O'Kicki's personal affairs. The judge would be accused of soliciting bribes, frequenting brothels, and running the county as if he were a "battleship commander." Later he'd concoct a plan to flee the country and exact revenge on his enemies. 
 
 
 
Set in the aftermath of the 1977 Johnstown flood and including courtroom testimony, the memos of whistleblowers, contemporary interviews, and excerpts from O'Kicki's unfinished tell-all memoir, Jailing the Johnstown Judge is a fresh examination of the extraordinary western Pennsylvania case that attained international infamy.

Bufalino - Revelations of a...

Charles Bufalino

Russell Bufalino was considered the most powerful Mob boss of his day, if not all time. But until now, no one has ever traced Russell's career back to the coal fields of Northeastern Pennsylvania, or explored the legacy of the Pittston crime family Russell would inherit. Charles Bufalino, cousin and caretaker of the family's explosive history, offers the most authentic and probable solution to the greatest Mob mystery of all time: What really happened to Jimmy Hoffa?Stretching back to the Bufalino roots in Sicily and the emigration of the men of Montedoro to the turn-of-the-nineteenth-century Pennsylvania coal fields, this gripping story lays the groundwork for the inception of an organized crime empire. Once in America, the Bufalinos penetrated both sides of the labor-versus-management conflict to magnify their own power and ultimately influence events on the national stage. By the 1950s, Russell would be named boss—the Don of all Dons. Blood ties and extended family were his to control. Likewise, his enemies, including Teamsters president, Jimmy Hoffa.Delving deeply into corroborated family documentation, Charles Bufalino separates fact from fiction and corrects the presumed history of his ruthlessly enterprising ancestors to paint an intimate portrait of one of the most storied crime families of the twentieth century.

The Alice Crimmins Case

Anais Renevier

New York, Summer of 1965. 
 
 
 
One hot summer, two young children disappeared from their first-floor apartment in the Kew Gardens neighborhood of Queens, New York. Their mother, Alice Crimmins, reported them missing to the police. Later that day, the body of four-year-old Missy was found in a vacant lot, showing signs of having been strangled. The body of five-year-old Eddie, Jr., was found several days later. 
 
 
 
Police were immediately suspicious of the mother. Recently divorced, with teased red hair and heavy makeup, Alice Crimmins did not fit the maternal ideal held by the predominantly Catholic police detectives on the case. Her every action was scrutinized: Was she behaving like a grief-stricken mother or like a coldhearted killer? After three years of police surveillance, Alice was charged with the murder of her children in 1968 in a highly publicized trial. Ultimately found guilty of manslaughter, Alice spent a decade in prison before being released on parole in 1977. 
 
 
 
But was she truly guilty, or just the victim of police bias and misogynistic judgment? Journalist Anaïs Renevier revisits the case, exploring one of the most famous and divisive trials in recent American history.
