Denson D: THE MAN, THE BOY, THE MONSTER

THE MAN, THE BOY, THE MONSTER

A Texas Prison Guard's Story

A Global Vision for Competition Law

Harry First Liber Amicorum

Why would an innocent person ever confess to a crime they did not commit? Academia has conducted a great deal of research into this question and have routinely concluded that the actions of law enforcement officers and their interrogative tactics are largely responsible for these false confessions. Through the claims of academic researchers, expert witnesses, wrongful conviction advocates, defense attorneys, and even Hollywood producers, an ethos has been created which suggests that American law enforcement officers routinely overbear the will of criminal subjects and will stop at nothing in order to obtain a confession; even a false confession. This book finally brings balance to these flawed assertions by providing insights from real-world law enforcement officers who specialize in the field of criminal interrogation. This book also highlights the anti-law enforcement bias present within the academic community; the flawed and unrealistic research designs utilized to study the false confession phenomenon; and the rise of the lucrative false confession expert witness industry. In what can only be described as 'apoplectic, ' academics have already equated the positions in this book to "arguing against the existence of climate change" and have pleaded that it "should never see the light of publication." At last, a book has been written that reconsiders the false confession phenomenon from a law enforcement perspective and ultimately paints a drastically different picture of what takes place inside of America's interrogation rooms. This book promises to offer a different take on what many so-called experts would have you believe about criminal interrogation; and it's one they don't want you to hear.

A Law Enforcement Perspective

Rethinking the False Confession Phenomenon

Tradd Street Press

"Fifty-Two Years a Policeman" offers a comprehensive and firsthand account of the evolution of law enforcement in Great Britain through the eyes of one of its most distinguished officers, Sir William Nott-Bower. Spanning over half a century, Nott-Bower's narrative provides an unparalleled look into the inner workings of the police force from the late Victorian era through the early 20th century. Having served in significant leadership roles, including the Commissioner of the City of London Police, the author recounts his experiences with clarity, detailing the shift from traditional methods to more modernized investigative techniques.The work explores a wide range of topics, including high-profile criminal cases, the management of public order during times of social unrest, and the administrative challenges of overseeing a major urban police force. Nott-Bower shares insights into the personalities of notable figures and the complexities of urban crime during a transformative period in British history. This memoir serves as both a personal reflection on a lifetime of service and a vital historical document for those interested in the development of the modern police system. "Fifty-Two Years a Policeman" remains an essential read for students of criminology, social history, and the intricacies of 19th and 20th-century British law and order.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.

Fifty-Two Years a Policeman

"From 1994 to 2000, when South Africa was a young democracy, the country was stalked by a succession of brutal serial killers. Psychologist Micki Pistorius became the first profiler for the South African Police Service, playing a vital role in identifying and interrogating these killers, as well as training detectives nationally and in other countries. She broke ground with her theory on the origin of serial killers and is considered a trailblazer in her field, Catch me a killer details the cases she worked on--from the Station Strangler and the Phoenix Cane Killer to Boetie Boer and the Saloon Killer. The book also features legendary detectives such as Piet Byleveld and Suiker Britz, as well as the FBI's Robert Ressler."--Provided by publisher.

A Profiler's True Story

Catch Me a Killer

Reading Rough Streets, Tough Skies, and Sunday Sidelines, readers may need to be reminded that it is a true story. From Larry Wansley’s days as a young police detective, dodging bullets while attempting to calm the Compton (California) race riots to his leadership of a staff that identified the 9/11 hijackers, this globally respected security figure has written an action-packed recollection of his foot-to-the-pedal career. As one of the FBI's first long-term undercover agents, Wansley aided with the search for kidnapped Patty Hearst and once organized a sting operation that resulted in the recovery of $42 million in stolen property. He used so many aliases that at times he had trouble remembering who he was supposed to be. While serving as Global Security Director for American Airlines, he coordinated the numbing turmoil that came in the wake of the 9/11 tragedy and walked among those searching Ground Zero. He dealt with drug cartels, arms smugglers, a shoe bomb, and more than a few Mafia wiseguys. During his tenure as Director of Security for the Dallas Cowboys, he shielded legendary Cowboys coach Tom Landry from a potential sniper hidden in the Monday Night Football crowd and spent a summer serving as pop singer Whitney Houston's bodyguard during her European tour. Written with two-time Edgar Award winner Carlton Stowers, Wansley’s autobiography runs the emotional gamut from terrifying to heartbreaking to laugh-out-loud funny with the dangerous and high drama situations that are often only found in fiction.

Reminiscences by General D. J. Cook, Chief of the Rocky Mountains Detective Association (Cram Edition)

Hands Up; or, Thirty-Five Years of Detective Life in the Mountains and on the Plains

"From the highest-ranking whistleblower in the history of the NYPD, a political memoir that exposes the brokenness of policing from both outside and inside the system During the workday, Edwin Raymond is on the beat as a ranked lieutenant in the New York Police Department. When the uniform comes off, he takes on a very different role: the lead plaintiff in the largest-ever civil rights lawsuit against the very police force he serves. This is the true story of one of our country's most important whistleblowers against police injustice, told in his own words. Raised in a poverty-stricken, largely immigrant neighborhood in Brooklyn and driven toward law enforcement by the hope of being a positive influence in his community, Raymond quickly learned that the problem with policing is a lot deeper than merely "a few bad apples"-the entire mechanism is set up to ensure that racial profiling is rewarded, and there are weighty consequences for cops who don't play along. Offering a rare, often shocking view of American policing through the eyes of an insider to the system, Raymond pulls back the curtain on the many injustices woven into the NYPD's training, data, and practices-all of which have been repackaged and repurposed by police departments across America. At once revelatory and galvanizing, An Inconvenient Cop is a whistleblower account unlike any other-a book that courageously bears witness to and exposes institutional violence, all while presenting a vision of radical hope, making the case for a world in which the police's responsibility is to the people, not to their arrest numbers"--
