Psychology of...Horror Villains, Survivors, and Victims poses this question: If our favorite characters were real, what would their psychological disorder be? Could they have been helped? What type of treatments would they have received? Why were some people survivors, and why did others become victims?

The murder of Sarah Payne, Adam the Thames Torso, the London bombings, the Night Stalker and the poisoning of Alexander Litvinenko... The solving of all these cases can be linked to one man: Ray Fysh, a Charlton Athletic fan from Woolwich, a natural raconteur and also one of the finest forensic detectives the country has ever seen. Ray began work for the Met Police in the 1970s when forensic investigation was seen as little more than a geeky side show, only in existence to confirm or eliminate evidence. But by the mid 90s, Ray and his team had made huge progress in their field.

As the labor market continues to exploit workers by offering precarious, low-paid, and temporary jobs, for some, duality offers much-needed flexibility and staves off poverty. This book illustrates contemporary accounts of individuals taking extraordinary risks to hold jobs in both sex industries and non-sex work employment. It also opens a dialogue about how sex industries are stratified in the UK in terms of race and culture against the backdrop of Brexit. Debunking stereotypes of sex workers, this book makes an invaluable contribution to discourses about work, society, and policy.

In this book, Katherine Beckett explains how and why mass incarceration persists despite growing recognition of its many failures, plummeting crime rates, and widespread efforts by state legislators and others to reduce prison populations. Beckett identifies three primary forces sustaining incarceration rates in this country: political dynamics around violence, resistance to criminal legal system reform in suburban and rural counties, and the failure of popular drug policy reforms to reduce the reach of the criminal legal system.

Donald Trump won the election; climate change isn't real; America is a color-blind country. Despite overwhelming evidence to the contrary, why do so many of us refuse to admit the truth? Denial is so much a part of our lives that we deny its existence all the time.

Social scientists have long argued over the links between crime and place. The authors of Communities and Crime provide an intellectual history that traces how varying images of community have evolved over time and influenced criminological thinking and criminal justice policy.

Tidsmässigt är inte avståndet särskilt långt från idyllen Sverige, som tillät företrädare från vårt land att röra sig fritt på offentliga platser utan livvakter, till den ödesdigra natt då statsminister Olof Palme brutalt sköts ned på öppen gata i Sveriges huvudstad. Det som dittillls hänt i form av mord på prominenta personer hade den svenska allmänheten ingen nära erfarenhet av. Flertalet människor kände sig därför trygga ända fram till mordet på Olof Palme.

Written by the world's leading expert on false confessions, this landmark book reveals the psychology behind why innocent men, women, and children, intensely stressed and befuddled by the promises, threats, trickery, and deception of a police interrogation, are duped into confession, no matter how horrific the crime.

In Gang Politics, Kristian Williams examines our society's understanding of social and political violence, what gets romanticized, misunderstood, or muddled. He explores the complex intersections between "gangs" of all sorts—cops and criminals, Proud Boys and Antifa, Panthers and skinheads—arguing that government and criminality are intimately related, often sharing critical features.

True Crime Stories von Joe Bausch, dem Experten für Verbrechen und das Böse. "Von unvorstellbarem Ausmaß", so werden Gewaltakte mit tödlichem Ausgang in der Öffentlichkeit häufig genannt. Nur wenige Menschen kennen persönlich so viele Schwerverbrecher wie der langjährige Gefängnisarzt und True-Crime-Spezialist Joe Bausch. In seinem neuen Buch geht er der Frage nach, wie Gewalttaten entstehen. Er erzählt den Fall von der "Eislady", die sich von ihren dominanten Männern nur durch Mord zu befreien wusste. Oder vom dreifachen Familienvater, der auf Jersey elf Jahre lang ein Doppelleben als Sexualstraftäter führen konnte.

Gun rights and control are well-trodden subjects, with prior work supporting the right of citizens to own firearms, discussing the failure of gun control efforts, or warning about or exhorting citizen gun ownership, among other things. Although social media in their many forms have only come to dominate modern U.S. life during the past decade, there has been little academic exploration of gun owner communities on the Internet and social media.

Der er nogle gidseldramaer og kapringer, som verden stadig husker i dag. For eksempel sagen om 16-årige Paul Getty, der blev kidnappet i Rom en sommeraften i 1973. Gerningsmændene kræver en enorm løsesum, ellers klipper de drengen i småstykker og sender delene pr. post en ad gangen. Snart viser det sig imidlertid, at det ikke er kidnapperne, der er drengens værste fjender, men hans stenrige familie...

Fængselsbetjentene i det lille provinsielle arresthus har fin tid til at hygge sig med et par øl i pauserne. Der er normalt rimeligt roligt i arresten, for fangerne omgås hinanden nogenlunde civiliseret og forsøger at undgå problemer, mens deres sager bliver behandlet. Det hele ændrer sig imidlertid, da en pædofilisigtet mand bliver sat i arresten. Det bringer sindene i kog blandt de andre fanger, og det begynder hurtigt at trække op til oprør. Jørn Jønke Nielsen (f. 1960) er en dansk forfatter og rocker.

Tre teenagedrenge fra Gentofte har fundet en god fidus. Når det er koldt og mørkt kører de rundt i en sort BMW på de stille sideveje og begår indbrud i de villaer, hvor der ikke er nogen hjemme. Og der er da heller ikke noget, der tyder på, at der er nogen hjemme i det hus, de bryder ind i den kolde februaraften. Men inde i huset finder de liget af en kvinde, og da politiet pludselig dukker op, ser de forfærdeligt skyldige ud - ikke bare i indbrud, men også i mord. Jørn Jønke Nielsen (f. 1960) er en dansk forfatter og rocker.

This revised and updated second edition includes new case studies and viewpoints, a revised crime funnel based on new data, and a new chapter examining the expanding role of technology and big data in intelligence-led policing.
