Download or read book Found Guilty But written by Joe Kotvas and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2017-01-24 with total page 490 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Welcome to the true story of the department of injustice. In 1972, Joe Kotvas had it all as a former police officer and a rising star in Tampa politics. But thirteen years later, a short visit by a corrupt colleague to the office of Hillsborough county commissioner Joe Kotvas's office in 1983 would change and shake the very core of local government right up to Washington, DC. The colleague was advised to plant a bribe at the behest of an ambitious US attorney known to the community as Mad Dog (Robert) Merkle, a man eager to make his way to larger assignments in his political career. Found Guilty, But... is a firsthand account of how innocent people and public servants were set up and framed on bribery and corruption charges as part of a witch hunt designed to put dozens of prominent people who did business with the government in prison. This is the complete story of how a beloved politician's career was cut short by an unscrupulous prosecutor intent on putting as many people in jail as possible. It is a personal story about Kotvas's battle to get adequate legal representation, his trials, his five years in federal prison, and his return to a community that had once venerated him as an attentive government official and later painted him as an outcast in disgrace. Experience what happened from start to finish-how the criminal justice system designed to protect the innocent came to be his worst nightmare. See exactly how the wrong people can end up losing chunks of their lives and reputations to powerful prosecutors who care little except to make names for themselves. But best of all, learn how Joe Kotvas weaves a grim depiction of the anguish and despair of helplessness while emerging at the end of it all as a productive member of the community with his head held high.

Download or read book For Cuba for Freedom written by Raul Andres Villamia and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2023-11-28 with total page 317 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Raul Villamia's childhood in Cuba revolved around baseball and bloodshed. The violence that he witnessed led him to support Castro's revolution, and his brother Mario introduced him to Castro's 26th of July Movement (M267). Minor league baseball brought him to the United States, where he hoped to pursue a career in the majors, and left Villamia uniquely placed to aid Castro's revolution from abroad. From Tampa, New York City, Bridgeport, Union City, Miami, and Key West, the Villamias, Angel Perez-Vidal, Howard K. Davis and others supported Castro through fundraising, collecting supplies for the revolutionaries, propaganda campaigns, and arms smuggling. Raul rubbed elbows with Castro and his top men and with American gangsters who did business in Cuba. He was hounded by the FBI, and his brother Mario is mentioned in the Warren Commission Report. This memoir recalls Villamia's experience as an advocate for Castro in the United States and tells the story of those in America whose efforts helped to oust Batista.

Download or read book Siobhan Dunmoore written by Eric Thomson and published by Sanddiver Books Inc.. This book was released on 2021-06-29 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now, for the first time, the three books that started a legend are together in a single edition. Book 1: No Honor in Death Siobhan Dunmoore isn't having a good war. She's had more ships shot out from under her by the invading Shrehari Empire than any other officer in the Fleet. Some call her overly aggressive. Others simply call her reckless. What the enemy calls her is something else altogether. That she gave the Shrehari a good drubbing along the way doesn't matter in the least, because not all her enemies wear an Imperial uniform. A reputation for bad luck is pretty much all she has left. After another near defeat, she wants nothing more than a long rest, because this time, she escaped by the thinnest of bluffs. Unfortunately, the Admiralty has other ideas. The frigate Stingray is known as the unluckiest ship in the Fleet, one whose Captain was removed in disgrace for cowardice. Some in the Admiralty want to retire the old warhorse. After all, she is the last of her type left in service and perhaps it's time to break up the jinx permanently, along with the crew. But during an interstellar war, every ship that could fight is needed. In short order, Dunmoore goes from staring down the Empire's finest on the bridge of a wrecked battleship to taking on a demoralized, semi-mutinous crew, scheming admirals, and a deadly mystery. Stingray's bad luck isn't just superstition gone rampant. Between a crew that won't talk, political enemies who want her gone, and her personal demons, she has her hands full. Taking the frigate into battle under those conditions would seem foolish to anyone else, but Dunmoore never shrank from a good fight. Book 2: The Path of Duty Duty, honour, loyalty. What meaning do those words still hold during an interstellar war where the difference between the enemy and one's own leadership is sometimes paper thin? Unfairly relegated to punishment duty far from the battle lines and still pursued by her past, Siobhan Dunmoore must sail her ship deep into pirate-infested space on a quest to restore the Navy's reputation after failing to stop an attack that destroyed a civilian freighter. There, she hopes to find clues that might absolve Stingray’s crew from blame but instead, she's sucked into a vortex of intrigue and treachery that threatens not only all their lives, but the future of the embattled Commonwealth. Caught in a web of competing schemes for supremacy while fending off marauders, mercenaries, and spies, Dunmoore must find a way of getting her people home safe and beyond the reach of a powerful cabal at the heart of the Admiralty. Book 3: Like Stars in Heaven One last mission. One mysterious passenger. One baffling destination. After centuries of travel, an ancient log buoy finally reaches human-controlled space. Amid a stalemated interstellar war, the Admiralty has little interest in wasting resources on what would likely be a fruitless search for the truth, but someone convinced them to send an old, obsolete frigate soon destined for the scrapyard, on this quest. Pulled from her patrol route, Siobhan Dunmoore is ordered to take an envoy aboard Stingray and sail into a poorly charted and virtually unexplored region of the galaxy hidden behind interstellar dust clouds. Along the way, she'll encounter an old enemy, now also relegated to the fringes of the war, turning a voyage of discovery into a race against time and against each other. All three books in this Omnibus Edition were previously published as separate titles.
