THE PEOPLE vs THE GOLDEN STATE KILLER—Thien Ho

THE PEOPLE vs THE GOLDEN STATE KILLER—Thien Ho

In The People vs. the Golden State Killer, Thien Ho, the current District Attorney of Sacramento, recounts his harrowing and exhilarating experience as the lead prosecutor responsible for capturing and prosecuting Joseph DeAngelo. Referred to at various times by law enforcement and the media as the Visalia Ransacker, the East Bay Rapist, the Original Nightstalker, and finally the Golden State Killer, DeAngelo, a former policeman, is widely considered “one of the most notorious serial predators in American history.
Ho’s book is the first official account of how the Golden State Killer was apprehended and put behind bars for life. Ho led an elite team of law enforcement from six California prosecutor's offices, using a newly developed tool known as “investigative genetic genealogy” to connect DeAngelo to multiple cold cases stretching back nearly a half century.
Many previous narratives about DeAngelo, including two bestselling books and multiple documentaries, focused largely on the killer and his heinous crimes. This book not only provides hundreds of facts and details never revealed to the public about the Golden State Killer’s crimes, it also presents the real-life story of the people who worked tirelessly to bring DeAngelo to justice. It also offers the unprecedented authorized perspective of three survivors of DeAngelo's crimes who courageously turned their pain into empowerment and activism. A portion of the book’s proceeds will be donated both by the author and Third State Books to Phyllis’s Garden, a nonprofit advocating for victims’ rights begun in honor of a GSK survivor.
The People vs. the Golden State Killer also recounts Ho’s fascinating personal journey, from escaping communist Vietnam with his family as a child to working his way up from an internship to an elite homicide division and eventually becoming one of only ten Asian American district attorneys out of 2,400 nationwide.

SERGEANT SMACK-Ron Chepesiuk

SERGEANT SMACK-Ron Chepesiuk

True crime author Ron Chepesiuk uncovers one of the biggest hoaxes in the history of the international drug trade in Sergeant Smack: The Legendary Lives and Times of Ike Atkinson, Kingpin, and his Band of Brothers. Sergeant Smack details the true legend of Ike Atkinson, one of the biggest Black drug traffickers in U.S. history. Atkinson pioneered some of the most innovative methods used in international drug smuggling. They ranged from duffle and AWOL bags, to the U.S. Army Postal System to the use of unsuspecting crew chiefs who operated military aircraft transporting teakwood furniture. But, contrary to popular belief, Atkinson's methods did not include the bogus cadaver-heroin smuggling connection conspiracy exploited by Frank Lucas in Hollywood 's blockbuster film, "American Gangster." The film not only distorted Atkinson's historical role in the international drug trade, but falsely depicted Lucas as the pioneer of the Asian heroin connection. As the book conclusively shows, the conspiracy is a hoax, as is Frank Lucas' claims of participation with Ike in the conspiracy.

TRUE CRIME BOOK REVIEWS-Kim Cantrell

TRUE CRIME BOOK REVIEWS-Kim Cantrell

Kim Cantrell has been reading true crime for 20+ years, becoming hooked after checking out a true crime story from her high school library. Her interest in the judicial system led to a career as a legal secretary then on to private investigations until 2002. She decided to expose herself as a fan of this very closeted genre when she began reviewing on Amazon in 2006; quickly rising to a top reviewer rank. Seeing the growing intensity of the genre and the loyality of its readers coupled with the difficulty of fans finding books she decided it was time to take it to an all new level with a site dedicated just to true crime books; what's new, who's new, and the classics otherwise long forgotten. Her site is the premier true crime book review in America. The site a must for all fans of the genre-passionate, detailed and comprehensive reviews. TRUE CRIME BOOK REVIEWS-Kim Cantrell.
