Book excerpt: Mr Big is strong, Mr Big is tough, Mr Big is . . . well . . . BIG! He has just one small problem - because of the way he looks he just can't get people to stick around. How can he show them that although he may look a little scary, he is just a great big softy inside? With his trademark bold colour and masterful graphic simplicity, Ed Vere sensitively and humorously tackles the universal and current subject of inclusion, reminding the reader that to get to know someone you need to look beyond their exterior. This is the third picture book from an exciting new talent, whose previous titles The Getaway and Banana have received great critical acclaim.

Book excerpt: Mr. Big is the shocking true story of a murder investigation in Newfoundland and Labrador that forever changed the face of the Canadian justice system. On August 4, 2002, three-year-old twin girls Karen and Krista Hart drowned in Gander Lake. They had gone there with their father. He said it was an accident, but the police were convinced Nelson Hart had killed his daughters that day. With not enough evidence to make an arrest, the RCMP launched a $500,000 "Mr. Big" sting operation to try to get a confession. This book examines the dramatic events that unfolded over the four-month period when Nelson was flying back and forth across the country working in what he believed to be an organized crime syndicate. Central to this story is Jennifer Hicks, who reveals for the first time her life with her now ex-husband, Nelson Hart, and the events surrounding the deaths of her daughters. Together with television journalist Colleen Lewis, who closely followed Hart's murder trial, Jennifer has reconstructed the tragic story of an abusive relationship and a mother's worst nightmare.

Book excerpt: In, 1901, the Manitoba Court of King's Bench described the Mr. Big scenario as ôvile and contemptible,ö yet it remains an accepted interrogation technique. Posing as organized crime figures working for a powerful boss known only as ôMr. Big,ö who is willing to offer incentives but only if the details of any criminal past are disclosed, undercover police officers encourage, cajole, bribe and compel confessions out of key suspects. The scenario is often successful at achieving its goal - a confession - but it is no coincidence, this book charges, that these coerced confessions come most often from within vulnerable populations.

Book The Real Mr  Big

Download or read book The Real Mr Big written by Ron Chepesiuk and published by WildBlue Press. This book was released on 2021-04-20 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This true crime memoir is both a “high-speed train trip through the modern cocaine trade” and a story of reform, redemption and family (Gerald Posner, and author of Pharma). Born in 1960, Jesus Ruiz Henao wanted to be rich like the drug dealers he saw as he grew up in the cocaine-producing region of Colombia’s Valle of the Cauca. In 1985, he moved to the quiet London suburb of Hendon, where he and his wife held down mundane cleaning and bus driving jobs. At least to outward appearances . . . While keeping a low profile, Henao built a drug trafficking network reaching from Colombia to England and across Europe. It was a risky business with law enforcement on one side and ruthless competitors on the other. By the summer of 2003, he decided to get out. But then he made the one mistake that would get him caught. It cost him a seventeen-year prison sentence, with more tacked on when he tried to make one last deal from behind prison walls. Co-written by Henao with bestselling author Ron Chepesiuk, The Real Mr. Big is the story of how an ambitious Colombian immigrant became known to law enforcement as “the Pablo Escobar of British drug trafficking.”

Book Mr  Big Britches

Download or read book Mr Big Britches written by Darrell A. Rolerson and published by Dodd Mead. This book was released on 1971 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Rachel Levy (Hebrew: ) was killed at age 17 on March 29, 2002 when Ayat al-Akhras, a teenage Palestinian female suicide bomber, wearing a belt of explosives around her waist, blew herself up at the entrance to a supermarket in Jerusalem's Kiryat Hayovel neighborhood on March 29, 2002. The killings gained widespread international attention due to the suicide bomber's age and gender and the fact that one of the two Israeli dead was a girl of nearly identical age as the bomber. The killings led U.S. President George W. Bush to observe: "When an 18-year-old Palestinian girl is induced to blow herself up and in the process kills a 17-year-old Israeli girl, the future itself is dying, the future of the Palestinian people and the future of the Israeli people.

Book excerpt: It all started so innocently, but sometimes the biggest moments in your life start with the smallest of events… The email dropped into my mailbox about nine thirty on a Tuesday night. I opened it, surprised to see that the email had been sent to a mailbox and email address I hadn’t used for ages. To: [email protected] Reply-To: [email protected] Re: Emergency Hey, is this Sexy Lexi? I got your email from John. I have a 9-1-1, and need your services. Big family dinner on Saturday at the ballroom, Cipriani Wall Street, and will be surrounded by family and business associates. John said you were really high class and brainy. In other words, not your usual escort. If you’re available, wear something amazing but conservative. John showed me the menu. I’ll take a standard date with no add-ons. The usual conditions apply. Cheers, MBS “Oh, my God…” I was in awe that anyone could write an email and use an email address like that. “It’s from – get this – Mr. Big Shot 69. You won’t believe what this jerk wrote.” Candace, my BFF, my partner in crime and the one person who could talk me into almost anything, glanced over my shoulder and read it on the screen. "He thinks you're an escort and wants you to attend a family dinner? What kind of jerk invites an escort to a family dinner?" I chewed a nail and considered. "Should I write him back?" She smiled, an evil gleam in her eyes. How many times had the girl got me in trouble? Luckily, I emerged from my teenage years alive, relatively unscathed, and without a criminal record, but only just barely. So, I should have known to trust my own gut. But I didn’t… Now, I have to give the performance of my life and play an escort to one of the hottest young billionaires in Manhattan so I can tell the story to my girlfriends at brunch on Sunday. When the performance starts to feel too real, will I get out with my heart intact? Will I want to?

  • ISBN : 1773058274

Download or read book The Mr Big Sting written by Mark Stobbe and published by ECW Press. This book was released on 2021-09-28 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How the police create an imaginary criminal gang to trick homicide suspects into a confession and a prison cell There are people in prison who got away with murder until they told the boss of a powerful criminal gang all about it. When the handcuffs were snapped on, the killers learned they’d been duped — that “Mr. Big” was actually an undercover police officer. These killers ended up with lots of time to think about how tricky police can be. In this captivating book, we learn why Mr. Big is so good at getting killers to confess — and why he occasionally gets confessions from the innocent as well. We meet murderers such as Michael Bridges, who strangled his girlfriend and buried her in another person’s grave. Bridges remained free until he told Mr. Big where the body was buried. We also meet people like Kyle Unger, who lied while confessing to Mr. Big and went to prison for a crime he did not commit. The “Mr. Big” Sting is essential reading for anyone interested in unorthodox approaches to justice, including their successes and failures. It sheds light on how homicide investigators might catch and punish the guilty while avoiding convicting the innocent.

Book Mr Big of Bankstown

  • Author : Andrew Moore
  • Publisher : Apollo Books
  • Release : 2011
  • ISBN : 9781742582788
  • Pages : 276 pages

Download or read book Mr Big of Bankstown written by Andrew Moore and published by Apollo Books. This book was released on 2011 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "When an article printed in a local newspaper in 1955 resulted in the gaoling of rough-hewn Bankstown businessman Ray Fitzpatrick and trouble-making journalist Frank Browne, one of the most extraordinary legal cases in Australia's history unfolded. Mr Big of Bankstown mixes bribery, corruption, violence and power-wrangling, to reveal the Underbelly of 1950s Australia. Fitzpatrick's penchant for rorting the system and Browne's reputation for fiery verbal attacks got the pair in trouble when they used Fitzpatrick's newspaper to teach MP Charles Morgan a lesson. In an unprecedented use of parliamentary privilege, Fitzpatrick and Browne were imprisoned solely on a vote of the House of Representatives -- without charge, trial or legal representation for making unsubstantiated and erroneous claims. Amongst the business rivalries and factional politics of post-war Bankstown, the Fitzpatrick and Browne affair pitted the right to free speech against parliamentary privilege."--Publisher's website.
