In the captivating pages of this true-crime narrative, we delve into the tragic story of Dave Schultz, a wrestling champion whose life was tragically cut short in a shocking act of violence. As we journey through the events leading up to this fateful day, we uncover a tale of manipulation, power, and the devastating consequences of unchecked mental illness.

Dave Schultz, a young wrestler with exceptional talent and unwavering determination, found himself drawn into the orbit of John du Pont, a wealthy and eccentric millionaire with a passion for the sport. Du Pont, a man shrouded in mystery and intrigue, saw in Schultz a kindred spirit, a fellow outsider longing for connection. He extended an invitation to Schultz, offering him financial support, access to world-class training facilities, and the promise of a lifelong friendship.

Schultz, eager to elevate his wrestling career and secure his financial future, accepted du Pont's offer. However, little did he know that this decision would lead him down a path of darkness and despair. As he delved deeper into du Pont's world, Schultz found himself ensnared in a web of manipulation, control, and mental anguish.

Du Pont's erratic behavior and emotional outbursts escalated, creating an environment of fear and uncertainty for Schultz and those around him. As tensions mounted, the stage was set for a tragic confrontation. In a moment of madness, fueled by a perceived betrayal, du Pont unleashed his wrath upon Schultz, ending his life in a senseless act of violence that shocked the world.

This book delves into the complex and disturbing psyche of John du Pont, exploring the factors that contributed to his mental instability and the tragic events that unfolded. It also sheds light on the importance of mental health awareness, the need for early intervention and treatment, and the devastating consequences that can occur when mental illness goes unchecked.

Through a gripping narrative and in-depth analysis, this book serves as a cautionary tale about the unforeseen consequences of unchecked power and mental illness. It is a story that will captivate readers from beginning to end, leaving them with a deeper understanding of the human psyche and the importance of mental health.

The Underground Railroad Part 1

William Still

”It was my good fortune to lend a helping hand to the weary travelers flying from the land of bondage.” William Still."Dear Sir:—For most of the years I have lived, the escape of fugitives from slavery, and their efforts to baffle the human and other bloodhounds who tracked them, formed the romance of American History. That romance is now ended, and our grandchildren will hardly believe its leading incidents except on irresistible testimony. I rejoice that you are collecting and presenting that testimony, and heartily wish you a great success." Horace Greeley.William Still is often called the Father of the Underground Railroad. Over 14 years, he helped hundreds of slaves escape to freedom in Canada. Still was committed to preserving the stories of the bondmen and he kept careful records of the many escaped slaves who passed through the Philadelphia “station”. The Underground Railroad was published in 1871 from Still’s records and diaries. In bringing you these stories, Librivox volunteers are reading from the 1878 edition.

With and Without You

Kelsey Parker

“They say the first year is the hardest.”

Kelsey Parker’s world was turned upside down in the summer of 2020 when her husband Tom, singer in boyband The Wanted, was cruelly diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumour.

Heavily pregnant with their second child and coping with her own heartache at losing her partner of 13 years, Kelsey remained a tower of strength and positivity for Tom during his darkest days. When traditional treatments stopped working, she spent hours researching alternative therapies to give her husband extra time with his young children Aurelia and Bodhi.

Hope came late in 2021 when Tom’s tumour became stable, but sadly his condition quickly deteriorated and on March 30, 2022, aged just 33, he died surrounded by his loyal wife, family and friends.

With And Without You is her moving, deeply personal story of the first 12 months since Tom’s tragic passing. An intimate diary of how she coped with a year of unwanted firsts – first birthdays, first Christmas, first Valentine’s Day – all without the love of her life. It is the story of how she rebuilt her life, and bravely found a way to face the future. Since Tom’s death, Kelsey has been an inspiration to many and a rock to the couple’s children. She has sought to raise awareness of glioblastoma and has bravely campaigned for vital funds for more research into the disease. She has also found spirituality – following Tom’s long held belief there is something greater than just one life.

With And Without You is not only a story of coping with unimaginable heartbreak and grief, but how your love for someone you’ve lost can be turned into something positive and bring hope and light into your life as you carry on your journey without them.

William Bonin: The True Story of...

Jack Rosewood

In the 1970s and early ‘80s, southern California was shocked when dead boys began turning up with disturbing regularity alongside some of the picturesque state’s most heavily traveled freeways.Victims of sadistic torture, the dead boys and young men had been raped and strangled, and their untimely deaths were eventually attributed to the Freeway Killer, an elusive psychopath whose trail of death would go down in California history as one of the worst true crime stories in the country.While the Freeway Killer ultimately turned out to be three different men, one of them was truck driver William Bonin, one of the most prolific and sadistic among American serial killers. Bonin usually preferred to work with an accomplice, and the lust killer and his cronies brutally raped and tortured his victims – Bonin loved the sounds of their screams – before strangling them and dumping them on the side of the road like garbage.Bonin confessed to committing 21 murders in the span of just a year, although many experts believe he was responsible for the deaths of many more missing young men.He was executed in 1996, and in this detailed serial killer biography, you’ll learn the background that might offer some understanding of what makes a man go off the rails and become a deranged lust killer.Of course, spine-tingling story of a man whose youngest victim was a 12-year-old who was waiting for a bus to take him to Disneyland might be one that causes you to sleep with the lights on for weeks after turning the final gruesome page.
