Download or read book Murderer with a Badge written by Edward Humes and published by Diversion Publishing Corp.. This book was released on 2014-03-11 with total page 668 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the Pulitzer Prize–winning author: “The story of L.A.’s dirtiest cop . . . A riveting glimpse of the dark side of human behavior” (Flint Journal). Bill Leasure was among the least ambitious officers ever to wear the badge for the Los Angeles Police Department. He was content to work the traffic beat and only rarely gave out tickets. He also ran scams that netted him countless riches, from stealing yachts to collecting guns and cars. And he further enriched himself by setting up a murder-for-hire ring. Was he in it for the thrills? Was he a cop playing both sides of the law for the fun of it? Pulitzer Prize–winning journalist Edward Humes explores the lies and psychopathy that enabled Bill Leasure to fool even the most savvy of city prosecutors, his own wife. “Rife with vivid description. Disturbing.” —The Miami Herald “Fascinating . . . A superbly crafted chronicle of one of the most complex, enigmatic criminals in memory. Far stronger and more compelling than most crime fiction.” —Kirkus Reviews “Excellent . . . Authoritative, impeccably documented and disturbing.” —The Orange County Register “Painstaking research and hair-trigger pacing.” —Publishers Weekly

Vickie Speed is the spouse of Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department Detective Mitch Speed, who died from cancer in July 2018 as a result of exposure while on duty.

Download or read book Before the Badge written by Dominick Izzo and published by . This book was released on 2019-11-10 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dominick Izzo has been a thorn in the side of Police Command since his first Police Department when he refused to accept the status quo of allowing village officials and police commanding officers to operate with the falsehood that they were above the same law he swore to uphold. Having served as a police officer from 2001 until 2016. He served with full distinction and full disobedience for corruption. Izzo took on the challenges of the command of all three of the departments he was sworn to serve, never sitting by and watching the politics of the system work against the citizens or the officers who were subject to such corrupt members. From refusing to sleep with a village official, to exposing the abuses of power of a village mayor and his father to the sacrificing his career to take on the most corrupt police chief and his actions, Dominick Izzo honored his oath to the Constitution and those he swore to protect. Before the Badge is all about doing what is right, regardless of the cost to you personally or professionally. Your name and integrity are what matters the most in a profession of sharks who'll eat their own. Dominick proves that the Thin Blue Line is stuff movies are made of when it comes to any officer who challenges those who threaten the ideals law enforcement is held to. Considered an emotional "how to" for the street cop, Before the Badge is a must-read for anyone who is a cop, knows a cop or has dreams of becoming a cop and wants their badge to shield and protect their own heart.

Nathuram Godse assassinated Mahatma Gandhi as he walked towards the prayer grounds at the Birla House in New Delhi. Godse had attempted the attack twice earlier, but failed. After the third attempt, which led to Gandhi's death, he was arrested at the crime scene and sentenced to death after a year-long trial. Thus began a crucial debate over the assassination, with people mourning Gandhi's death on the one hand and standing with Godse on the other. The long trial unraveled the pain of the Partition and the poverty of the people who were struggling to start life afresh. Laying bare the thoughts of the common people and those in power alike, Why I Killed Gandhi is Godse's confession on why he took the drastic step and the events leading up to it.
