I would not recommend to many of my friends due to this factor. That being said, in terms of criminal research and behavioral science studies, this is a rather close peering into the abyss of evil itself. I certainly recommend to anyone in these fields of interest. Sometimes "curiousity may kill a cat;" when it doesn't, it just leads it into the fascinating field of "Feline Forensics!" ;-P ( ) ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse
"Wonderful and dark . . . a journey into the minds of two men who together become one killer" from the New York Times bestselling true crime author(Blaine L. Pardoe, author of A Special Kind of Evil). In April 1997, pretty, 22-year-old Jacine Gielinski stopped her car at a red light in Colorado Springs, Colorado. She had no idea that the two young men looking at her from the car next to hers would in that moment decide she would be their target for unspeakable horrors. George Woldt and Lucas Salmon were an unlikely pair of best friends, much less killers. Woldt was a fast-talking, well-dressed ladies' man who boasted of his sexual conquests. Salmon was deeply religious and socially misfit, obsessed with losing his virginity. Woldt was the leader, Salmon his willing follower, but neither had been in serious trouble with the law. However, inspired by the cult movie, A Clockwork Orange, with its dystopian violence, they fantasized for months what it would be like to abduct, rape, torture and murder a woman. Then, aroused by watching ultra-violent pornography, they decided to act upon their evil thoughts. Revised and updated with a new afterword from the author, A Clockwork Murder recounts the steps that led to an unthinkable crime and its impact on a community, as well as the friends and especially the parents of an innocent young woman who paid with her life for being in the wrong place at the wrong time. "Jackson's sharp eye misses nothing in the painstakingly rendered details."--Publishers Weekly No library descriptions found. |
