Reed S: Media Injustice

Jack the Ripper: Leather Apron

Food and drink are supposed to belong to the safest parts of life.

A family dinner. A lunch break. A bedside drink. A holiday dessert. A glass raised in celebration.

In Crimes Where Food and Drink Masked Murder, James Hampstead examines 40 true-crime casefiles in which ordinary meals, drinks, and familiar rituals became the route to poisoning, betrayal, and death.

The cases span homes, cafés, workplaces, hotel rooms, neighborhoods, and public spaces. Some ended in convictions. Others remain debated, unresolved, or never brought to final judgment.

Again and again, the object at the center is something simple: cheesecake, tea, curry, soup, cocoa, champagne, coffee, wine, soft drinks, a child's bottle. The object is ordinary. The breach it represents is not.

Danger does not always arrive loudly. Sometimes it is plated. Sometimes it is poured. Sometimes it is passed across a table with a smile.

Why this book
Poisoning cases occupy a particular place in true crime. They often begin in ordinary settings, rely on trust rather than force, and leave behind questions of motive, access, timing, and proof. This collection brings together 40 casefiles in which food and drink became central to the crime, whether as method, cover, or point of suspicion.

Inside this collection40 true-crime casefiles centered on poisoning, betrayal, and murder
Cases unfolding across homes, cafés, workplaces, hotels, and public spaces
A mix of convictions, disputed cases, unresolved questions, and cases never brought to final judgment
A serious, casefile-driven approach focused on people, evidence, and legal result
Famous and lesser-known cases linked by one chilling theme

40 True-Crime Casefiles of Poisoning, Betrayal and Death

Crimes Where Food and Drink Masked Murder

What do you do when a Nebraska State trooper accuses you of sexual assault?

Brienne Splittgerber dreamed of following in her father's footsteps and becoming a criminal investigator for the Nebraska State Patrol. In the fall of 2014, at the age of thirty-four, the married mother of two finally got her chance when she was selected to join the Nebraska State Patrol's fifty-sixth recruitment camp.

One week into training, the aspiring investigator told five members in her chain of command about the boot camp physical examination she experienced six weeks earlier. A male physician, contracted by the patrol, asked her to expose her genitals and anus during the examination. There was no physical contact. She found it "weird." Splittgerber expected a criminal investigation to be started, but her supervisor, Captain Mark Williams, swept the whole thing under the rug. He knew how she was. And like everyone said, if there was a female chaperone present, then you're okay. Angry and embarrassed, Splittgerber stayed at boot camp and waited, but she wasn't the type to let things go.

A year later, in the fall of 2015, five days after Captain Mark William's funeral, Trooper Brienne Splittgerber set into motion a chain of events that would ultimately sabotage her own dream and wreak havoc on the lives of others.

Bare Hearsay and Foundationless Assertions

The Hernia Check

I am not the woman who destroyed a celebrated professor's career - he did that himself.

For more than a decade, Dr Yoo Young Dominique Lee lived two lives. To the world, she was everything a cancer specialist was meant to be - competent, composed, admired. But beneath the polished surface was a traumatised woman barely surviving each day. 
In 2013, a respected oncology professor drugged and sexually assaulted Dominique when she was a trainee doctor. He was later charged,
pleaded guilty, and went to jail. His name was made public. Hers was not.

Until now.

What's Been Broken Is All the More Sharp is the story of the woman behind the headlines - her trauma, her silence, and what it cost her to stay in a profession where everyone seemed to know what happened to her but didn't actually know her. It is not just a retelling of the assault, but an unflinching exploration of who she was before and what follows: the disorientation, the shame, the crushing invisibility, and the long, unpredictable arc of recovery.

Told with clarity and courage, Dominique's story is a testament to survival, an offering to those experiencing similar trauma, and a reminder that the secret for surviving is the people who offer grace and kindness in even the darkest of times.
This is not a story about a man
who abused his power.
It is the story of a woman reclaiming hers.

What's Been Broken Is All the More Sharp

'A riveting tale of betrayal and lawlessness by the Russian Government, told by the most successful US investor in Russia' - Ambassador John Sullivan, US Ambassador to Russia 2020-22 It is dawn on Thursday, 14 February 2019, and armed FSB agents are raiding Michael Calvey's Moscow apartment. He is being arrested for a crime that never happened. &gt; But now, he finds himself thrown into Moscow's notorious Matrosskaya Tishina prison on charges trumped up by local business rivals. As the White House and Kremlin argue about his incarceration, Calvey is caught in a Kafka-esque trap, denied access to evidence proving his innocence. Odyssey Moscow is the story not just of Michael Calvey, but of how Russia's era of hope and aspiration finally died, and how light can be found in the darkest of places.

Kriminalroman - Basierend auf einem wahren Verbrechen

Am helllichten Tag

"Satanic Panic": A term derived in the late 1980s and early 1990s to convince people that satanic ritual abuse and occult crimes are nothing more than a rare occurrence.

It has been said that if someone tells a lie big enough and long enough, people will eventually come to believe it.

The dark forces that are behind occult crime and ritual abuse want everyone to believe that what they are doing is not really happening-is not real. But it is real, and it is happening.

This book is for people who want to know the facts-not the hype. It is for people who don't want fake news but want the real story.

Author Greg Reid has carefully documented what he witnessed regarding occult crimes and ritual abuse. He knows what he is talking about from his roles as an investigative reporter, a law-enforcement trainer, and a survivor of ritual abuse himself.

With a sense of urgency and responsibility to bring to light the reality behind the "Satanic Panic" urban legend, and for the sake of the victims of satanic ritual abuse, this book is for all who seek truth.

Solving the Unsolvable
By Gregg Benzon
Cold cases don't just haunt the families left behind-they haunt the investigators who could never close the file. In Solving the Unsolvable, veteran crime writer and journalist Gregg Benzon takes you deep inside forty of the most bizarre, twisted, and jaw-dropping real-life cases that refused to die.
From a parrot that repeats the words of a murder victim... to a GPS tracker hidden in a cat's collar... to the chilling confession that appeared on TikTok-these are crimes cracked not by luck, but by extraordinary evidence, relentless curiosity, and sometimes pure, strange coincidence.
You'll witness murderers unmasked by a single hair, fraudsters caught on Google Street View, and secrets buried for decades brought into the light by the smallest, most unlikely clues.
With the precision of an investigator and the storytelling of a seasoned journalist, Benzon pulls back the curtain on the cutting-edge forensics, digital breadcrumbs, and sheer human ingenuity that turn impossible mysteries into solved cases.
If you think you've heard it all... you haven't.
Perfect for fans of true crime, cold case investigations, and stories that prove reality is stranger than fiction.

Solving the Unsolvable

Als seine Mutter erzählt, dass sie sich im Netz in jemanden verliebt hat, der ihr Goldbarren schicken will, weiß Carlos sofort, was los ist: ein Romance Scam, eine Form des Internetbetrugs, bei denen Opfern unter falscher Identität Nähe vorgegaukelt wird, um an Geld zu kommen. Carlos kann seiner Mutter beweisen, dass alle E-Mails ihres Verehrers aus Nigeria stammen, und der Spuk ist vorbei, doch nun lassen ihn, den jungen Investigativjournalisten, die vielen Fragen nicht mehr los. Warum fällt jemand auf so was rein? Wer steckt bitte hinter dieser zeitintensiven Betrugsmasche? Carlos reist nach Lagos. Er schleust sich ein in die Welt der Love Scammer, begleitet vier von ihnen für ein Jahr. Anhand ihrer wechselhaften Schicksale versteht er die Psychologie des Romance Scams, erfährt von der Ausweglosigkeit einer ganzen Generation, von ihrem verschwenderischen Lifestyle, ihrer Erschöpfung und den moralischen Dilemmata. Und wie sich die Einsamkeit im Westen auf verblüffende Weise spiegelt in der Armut Nigerias.
Vielschichtiges Porträt Nigerias samt seiner Megametropole Lagos, rührende Mutter-Sohn-Geschichte, erschütternder Bericht von den Frontlinien moderner Einsamkeit - Hi Honey erweitert eindrucksvoll den Blick, auf die Art unseres Alleinseins und den afrikanischen Kontinent.
