Book excerpt: "From a young and sheltered churchgoing girl who grew up on a small farm in Rhine Georgia to becoming #00003 in the nation on the FBI list, the transformation of Susan Weeks is stranger than fiction. This book is the memoir of Susan's life as the wife of a Dixie-Mafia gangster, and a pawn in the hands of the mob. Defying the Mob, offers an exhaustive, detailed journey of courage, bravery, mystery, love, sex, betrayal, supernatural visitations, evil, abuse, bullying, organized crime, murder, politicians, the Dixie Mafia & inner circle members and secret affairs untold until now. Weeks' book reveals intricate details of her once unparalleled, lavish lifestyle turned ruin and disaster, Susan had to hide leaving no traces whatsoever for the last 26 years just to stay alive. Her husband's closest mafia partner (the bully) had been able to find her anywhere she hid until she learned the daunting techniques of how to completely stay "off the grid". During 26 years of hiding, Weeks evolved to become fearless, chose to confront her bully, even if it costs her life, and also unrepentantly decided to defy the mob. Weeks has contributed to the changing of laws for abused women who were incarcerated because they were the weaker mates of violent men who forced them to participate in their criminal activities. The rising trend of bullying and the resulting suicides worldwide has charged Weeks to once again act without fear! Weeks has been an advocate for anti-bullying for many years while keeping a low profile. "Enough is enough," said Weeks. "How many more will have to die?" This was a daring write, but no one on this earth will bully me anymore unless they kill me first. Weeks, throughout the last 26 years have had such compassion for abused and bullied women. "I will use the proceeds of my bestseller to build a world class resource for abused and bullied women and also follow the launch of this book with a movie to inspire women and give them hope." Weeks is determined to help abused women shine again like they were before becoming tarnished by bullying."--Back cover.

His best friend, Alex, is trying to score vicariously through him; his brother is a giant pain; and his father keeps bugging him to get motivated. There is just one thing that really sets him apart for other kids-his father happens to be the head of a powerful crime organization. Needless to say, while Vince's family's connections can be handy for certain things (like when teachers are afraid to give him a bad grade), they can put a serious crimp in his dating life. How is he supposed to explain to a girl what his father does for a living? But when Vince meets a girl who finally seems to be worth the trouble, her family turns out to be the biggest problem of all. Because her father is an FBI agent-the one who wants to put his father away for good.

Download or read book The Mafia written by Nate Hendley and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2013-08-27 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on original sources and research, not legends and myth, this book presents a lively, in-depth analysis of how the American Mafia epitomizes organized crime. Whether it's supplying illicit drugs, alcohol during Prohibition, gambling, prostitution, or even loans to those with bad credit, the Mafia has established itself as a part of the fabric of American society, politics, and economics for over a century. The Mafia continues to exist not only because of their immense power that allows their criminal organization to defy law enforcement, but because demand remains strong for what they offer. This book utilizes verifiable information about the Mafia based on newspaper and magazine accounts, police and FBI documents, court records, and the author's own original research to offer a deeper analysis of "the Mob" that provides historical, social, economic and cultural context. Fascinating biographical sketches that profile well-known Mafiosi such as Charles "Lucky" Luciano and John Gotti are also presented.

Download or read book Defying Jihad written by Esther Ahmad and published by NavPress. This book was released on 2019-06-04 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If you truly love Allah, you will die for him. Your death will mean much reward for you and your family in heaven. Only death will prove your love. It was the final test. A chance to win not only the love of Allah, but the love of her father—something she had never been able to earn. Esther took a deep breath and raised her hand in the air. At the age of eighteen, she had just volunteered to become a suicide bomber. Defying Jihad is the true story of a girl growing up under radical Islamic rule, trained to believe her ultimate purpose was to serve Allah by dying as a jihadist. But two nights before she was to leave forever, she had a dream . . . one that would change the course of her destiny. Against all odds, Esther became a follower of Jesus—even though leaving Islam meant her death sentence. But rather than kill her immediately, Esther’s furious father challenged her to a series of public debates with Muslim scholars: the Bible versus the Quran. If Esther won, she might yet survive. But if the Muslim clerics won, Esther must renounce her Christian faith. For an entire month—if she lived that long—Esther would be brought before the mob daily to defend her newfound faith. Would God give her the words to argue against Muslim leaders, former friends, and even her own family? Defying Jihad is an amazing story of a woman prepared to surrender all for Jesus—and whose life transformed from terror to overwhelming love.

Download or read book Defining and Defying Organised Crime written by Felia Allum and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2010-02-25 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Organized crime is now a major threat to all industrial and non-industrial countries. Using an inter-disciplinary and comparative approach this book examines the nature of this threat. By analysing the existing, official institutional discourse on organized crime it examines whether or not it has an impact on perceptions of the threat and on the reality of organized crime. The book first part of the book explores both the paradigm and the rationale of policy output in the fight against organized crime, and also exposes the often ‘hidden’ internal assumptions embedded in policy making. The second part examines the perceptions of organized crime as expressed by various actors, for example, the general public in the Balkans and in Japan, the criminal justice system in USA and circles within the international scientific community. Finally, the third part provides an overall investigation into the realities of organized crime with chapters that survey its empirical manifestations in various parts of the world. This book will be of interest to students and scholars of international relations, criminology, security studies and practitioners.
