Download or read book Busted written by Thomas J. Craughwell and published by Black Dog & Leventhal. This book was released on 2011-12-12 with total page 481 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A riveting lineup of the world's most famous and infamous arrests, from Lizzie Borden (double murder) to Lindsay Lohan (DUI) to Roman Polanski (unlawful sexual intercourse) Although the headlines fade, the humiliation, vulnerability, and sometimes chilling smugness of the alleged criminal in the mug shot stands the test of time. Covering 150 years of run-ins with the law, Busted reveals more than 500 of the most famous, disturbing, and just plain pathetic mug shots ever recorded. Subjects from all walks of life face front and turn to the left in this enthralling slice of social history. Among the alleged perpetrators are James Brown (carrying an unlicensed weapon and assaulting a police officer), Lenny Bruce (obscenity), Bill Gates (running a red light, driving without a license), Al Capone (tax evasion), Jeffrey Dahmer (rape, torture, murder, cannibalism), Eminem (assault), Mick Jagger (drugs charges), Malcolm X (burglary), Al Pacino (carrying a concealed weapon), Charles Barkley (disorderly conduct), Frank Sinatra (morals charges), Bernie Madoff (securities fraud, investment adviser fraud, mail fraud, wire fraud, money laundering, perjury, making false filings with the SEC, theft from an employee benefit plan), Bugsy Siegel (gambling and bootlegging), Tupac Shakur (sexual assault), Roger Clinton (drug dealing), and hundreds more. The date of the arrest is provided, along with the fascinating, shocking, and sometimes ludicrous stories of the circumstance that led to the arrest, as well as occasional details of the trial and punishment (or merely the humble apology) that followed. Impossible to turn away from, Busted is the perfect coffee-table or gift book for our celebrity-obsessed society.

Book Least Wanted

    Book Details:
  • Author : Mark Michaelson
  • Publisher : Steidl
  • Release : 2006
  • ISBN :
  • Pages : 314 pages

Download or read book Least Wanted written by Mark Michaelson and published by Steidl. This book was released on 2006 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Punks, sneaks, mooks and miscreants. Hookers, stooges, grifters and goons. Men and women, elderly and adolescent, rich and poor, but mostly poor. These are the Least Wanted. Their portraits make up a small part of Mark Michaelson's collection of over 10,000 American mugshots from the 1870s to the 1960s. Created as utilitarian instruments, and meant to be destroyed when obsolete, they survive as remnants of a bygone era of hard-copy originals, extraordinary visual windows on the past, and riveting physical artifacts, often accompanied by municipal ephemera. They are glued to cards and manuscripts, typed on and rubber stamped. Each suspect has been measured and fingerprinted, documented and classified. Bored, sheepish, proud, coy, tough, defiant, bounced, bloodied, bruised, broken and innocent faces--innocent until proven guilty--stare back at the camera with unmistakable individuality. This is central casting for the Late Late Show of unvarnished reality, and the lineup is full of small-timers, those who have fallen through the cracks. Each subject, each image, is a person, a portrait, a trace, a crime, a clue, a moment, an expression, a frame, a mustache, a mother, a father, a son or a daughter. Each image is evidence, documentation. A record of people and of stories dismissed by history and rescued here. A century of American souls, filed and forgotten, until now. Contributors include Ian McEwan and New Yorker contributor Malcolm Gladwell.

  • Pages : 401 pages

Download or read book Seek and Hide written by Amy Gajda and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2022-04-12 with total page 401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Gajda’s chronicle reveals an enduring tension between principles of free speech and respect for individuals’ private lives. …just the sort of road map we could use right now.”—The Atlantic “Wry and fascinating…Gajda is a nimble storyteller [and] an insightful guide to a rich and textured history that gets easily caricatured, especially when a culture war is raging.”—The New York Times An urgent book for today's privacy wars, and essential reading on how the courts have--for centuries--often protected privileged men's rights at the cost of everyone else's. Should everyone have privacy in their personal lives? Can privacy exist in a public place? Is there a right to be left alone even in the United States? You may be startled to realize that the original framers were sensitive to the importance of privacy interests relating to sexuality and intimate life, but mostly just for powerful and privileged (and usually white) men. The battle between an individual’s right to privacy and the public’s right to know has been fought for centuries. The founders demanded privacy for all the wrong press-quashing reasons. Supreme Court jus­tice Louis Brandeis famously promoted First Amend­ment freedoms but argued strongly for privacy too; and presidents from Thomas Jefferson through Don­ald Trump confidently hid behind privacy despite intense public interest in their lives. Today privacy seems simultaneously under siege and surging. And that’s doubly dangerous, as legal expert Amy Gajda argues. Too little privacy leaves ordinary people vulnerable to those who deal in and publish soul-crushing secrets. Too much means the famous and infamous can cloak themselves in secrecy and dodge accountability. Seek and Hide carries us from the very start, when privacy concepts first entered American law and society, to now, when the law al­lows a Silicon Valley titan to destroy a media site like Gawker out of spite. Muckraker Upton Sinclair, like Nellie Bly before him, pushed the envelope of privacy and propriety and then became a privacy advocate when journalists used the same techniques against him. By the early 2000s we were on our way to today’s full-blown crisis in the digital age, worrying that smartphones, webcams, basement publishers, and the forever internet had erased the right to privacy completely.

Book From Ballots to Mugshots

Download or read book From Ballots to Mugshots written by Thomas T. Taylor and published by eBookIt.com. This book was released on with total page 99 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Unearth the Dark Side of American Politics When it comes to politics, the journey from the ballot box to public office is often perceived as a noble path, driven by a desire to serve the public and make a positive impact on society. However, lurking behind the scenes is a darker side of politics, rife with corruption, crime, and their far-reaching consequences. From Ballots to Mugshots: A Study of Political Corruption, Crime, and Consequences in the U.S. peels back the curtain on the insidious world of political corruption, revealing its many forms and the mechanisms that enable it. Delve deep into the world of financial crimes, such as bribery and embezzlement, and explore the abuse of power through coercion, nepotism, and manipulation. The book also examines moral failings, personal indiscretions, and high crimes like treason and espionage that have plagued American politics for centuries. The narrative carefully navigates the intricacies of the judicial process, detailing the path from investigation and indictment to trial, sentencing, and the aftermath of conviction. Authoritative and meticulously researched, this book not only exposes the dark underbelly of American politics but also provides a comprehensive overview of the mechanisms of corruption, from the role of lobbyists and campaign finance to the power of patronage. The book also examines the role of the media, ethics committees, and public vigilance in holding those in power accountable and preventing corruption. The aftermath of political corruption is thoroughly analyzed, detailing its political, social, and personal fallout, as well as the processes that follow a vacant seat and life after conviction. From Ballots to Mugshots also offers a glimmer of hope by discussing potential solutions and preventative measures that can be implemented to curb political corruption and its detrimental effects. The book concludes with a brief history of political crime in America, tracing its roots from the 1700s to the present day, providing a historical context to the issues discussed. This compelling read is essential for anyone interested in American politics, law, and social justice. It provides valuable insights into the dark side of politics and offers practical solutions to combat corruption and restore public trust in the political system. From Ballots to Mugshots is not just a book; it is a call to action for a brighter, more transparent future in American politics.
