Book Madeleine Smith on Trial

Download or read book Madeleine Smith on Trial written by Brian Jenkins and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2019-06-21 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt:  In 1855, Glasgow socialite Madeleine Smith began a flirtation with Pierre L'Angelier, a handsome clerk--for her a mere diversion. But L'Angelier sought social mobility. Their class disparity gave her control of the intrigue but when the relationship turned sexual, the power imbalance shifted. The Scots recognized irregular unions in certain cases. L'Angelier considered Smith his wife, a part she at first discreetly played. When he refused to step aside and allow her a more socially acceptable marriage, his removal became necessary. Smith's sensational murder trial captivated both Britain and America. Despite compelling evidence of guilt, various factors led to her acquittal--her class and gender, the peculiarities of Scottish law--and many believed the case went to trial only because the Crown feared blatant confirmation that justice was not blind.

Download or read book Kimberly Cargill Murderess written by Pete Dover and published by . This book was released on 2019-08 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Bad Choices' that End in Murder'I'd kill for my child.' It's a bit of a cliché, one that rolls off the tongue glibly enough but also with a touch of traction. We would do anything for our kids; they become central to all that we do, everything we are.But the point is that most of us wouldn't, or would need the most impossibly extreme circumstances, kill or be killed, to carry out the threat. Where that impossibly extreme point falls is, of course, a matter of personal interpretation - something made up of many contributing factors. Kimberly Cargill is headed for the gurney. At some point the State of Texas will execute her. Something it does with more frequency than many other states in the US, although less often for women than for men. But had Kimberly not lost the justice system's zip code lottery, she might be anywhere now from death row, to prison without the chance of parole, through to being in receipt of psychological support, most probably (but not definitely) in a secure environment.Cargill's case is one with many facets. Are her claims of what happened a touch over ten years ago actually correct? Did she carry out the crime for which she was convicted?

Book  Progress  in Zimbabwe

Download or read book Progress in Zimbabwe written by David Moore and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-09-13 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Zimbabwe's severe crisis - and a possible way out of it with a transitional government, and the new era for which it prepares the ground - demands a coherent scholarly response. 'Progress' can be employed as an organising theme across many disciplinary approaches to Zimbabwe's societal devastation. At wider levels too, the concept of progress is fitting. It underpins 'modern', 'liberal' and 'radical' perspectives of development pervading the social sciences and humanities. Yet perceptions of 'progress' are subject increasingly to intensive critical inquiry. Their gruesome end is signified in the political projects of Robert Mugabe and ZANU-PF. John Gray's Black Mass: Apocalyptic Religion and the Death of Utopia indicates this. It is expected that participants will engage directly in debates about how the idea of 'progress' has informed their disciplines - from political science and history to labour and agrarian studies, and then relate these arguments to the Zimbabwean case in general and their research in particular. This book was published as a special issue of the Journal of Contemporary African Studies.
