Download or read book Fatal Vows written by Joseph Housey and published by Phoenix Books. This book was released on 2008-09-01 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In October 2007, twenty-three-year-old Stacy Peterson vanished from the Chicago suburb of Bolingbrook, leaving behind her husband and children. Retired Police Sergeant Drew Peterson, thirty years Stacy's senior, steadfastly asserted his innocence and maintained that his wife had simply fled their tumultuous marriage and run off with another man. Throngs of journalists and camera crews besieged Peterson's quiet suburban cul-de-sac, but the ex-cop seemed to relish in this newfound limelight. As exhaustive searches for Stacy's body turned up nothing and suggestive clues led nowhere, questions were raised: about their unusual marriage, about Stacy's past vocal concerns for her safety, and about Drew Peterson's bizarre public behavior in the wake of Stacy's disappearance. Then, in February 2008, came a startling development. After a second autopsy, the unusual death of Peterson's third wife, Kathleen Savio, was ruled a homicide. Three and a half years earlier, Savio had been found dead in the bathtub of their home, but in light of Stacy's curious disappearance, Kathleen's body was exhumed and the case was reopened. Two of Drew Peterson's four wives, it appeared, had met untimely fates—tragic and unexpected but hardly coincidental. Drawing upon exclusive interviews with Stacy's friends and family and even Drew himself, Chicago-area reporter Joseph Hosey presents the most researched account of the Stacy Peterson case yet. Still, as the charges against Drew Peterson mount, one haunting question remains: Where on earth is Stacy?

When Carol Montecalvo began writing to a man in prison through a program at her church, she considered it her Christian duty.

Download or read book The People s Modern Era Bill of Rights Forty Moral Commandments Vows Declarations written by Bro. Vonnie Darin Darby Sr. and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2019-05-21 with total page 51 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although the United States, United Kingdom, Africa, and many other countries have their bill of rights and constitution, and the world’s church and people have their Ten Commandments and the Holy Bible—all of which are still relevant, useful, and embraced—they all were written more than two hundred years ago and are individual documents and in badly need of an upgrade for today’s modern-era religious, social, economic, and humanitarian issues and concerns of the world, church, and governments. The People’s Modern Era Bill of Rights & Forty Moral Commandments and Vows Declarations is an upgraded version of the Bill of Rights, Constitution, and Ten Commandments—all in one. It consists of forty godly, moral, humanitarian modern-era values and principles on living righteously. With modern-era social issues, dysfunctional behavior, violence and broken up families and communities, and lost values and global connections in mind, the author created forty modern-era vows and commandments consisting of godly morals and values language. You will find this book to be very educational and inspiring—a connection and upgraded extension of the Constitution, Bill of Rights, Holy Bible, and Ten Commandments.

Download or read book Marriage Vows and Racial Choices written by Jessica Vasquez-Tokos and published by Russell Sage Foundation. This book was released on 2017-02-14 with total page 389 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Choosing whom to marry involves more than emotion, as racial politics, cultural mores, and local demographics all shape romantic choices. In Marriage Vows and Racial Choices, sociologist Jessica Vasquez-Tokos explores the decisions of Latinos who marry either within or outside of their racial and ethnic groups. Drawing from in-depth interviews with nearly 50 couples, she examines their marital choices and how these unions influence their identities as Americans. Vasquez-Tokos finds that their experiences in childhood, adolescence, and young adulthood shape their perceptions of race, which in turn influence their romantic expectations. Most Latinos marry other Latinos, but those who intermarry tend to marry whites. She finds that some Latina women who had domineering fathers assumed that most Latino men shared this trait and gravitated toward white men who differed from their fathers. Other Latina respondents who married white men fused ideas of race and class and perceived whites as higher status and considered themselves to be “marrying up.” Latinos who married non-Latino minorities—African Americans, Asian Americans, and Native Americans—often sought out non-white partners because they shared similar experiences of racial marginalization. Latinos who married Latinos of a different national origin expressed a desire for shared cultural commonalities with their partners, but—like those who married whites—often associated their own national-origin groups with oppressive gender roles. Vasquez-Tokos also investigates how racial and cultural identities are maintained or altered for the respondents’ children. Within Latino-white marriages, biculturalism—in contrast with Latinos adopting a white “American” identity—is likely to emerge. For instance, white women who married Latino men often embraced aspects of Latino culture and passed it along to their children. Yet, for these children, upholding Latino cultural ties depended on their proximity to other Latinos, particularly extended family members. Both location and family relationships shape how parents and children from interracial families understand themselves culturally. As interracial marriages become more common, Marriage Vows and Racial Choices shows how race, gender, and class influence our marital choices and personal lives.
