Aside from homes, schools are thought to be the second safest haven for children. But what if the institution that is designed to nurture and educate our children suddenly becomes the location for some of most horrific events we can imagine? 

School shootings have grown more rampant over the years, a condition that has become a serious crisis. Violence has become a part of our everyday lives and sadly, we all have slowly become accustom to seeing the reports on the news. 

Apart from setting safety measures in place to prevent these crimes from happening, it is important to gain a better understanding of what caused these teenagers to plot these plans and commit unthinkable evils. 

Let’s take a look at some of the most horrific school shootings in history.

These stories will show how diverse bullying can be and what tragic consequences it can have. Furthermore, they may suggest solutions to this problem, and may provide inspiration and optimism about the possibility of winning over the bullies.  READ MORE HERE

The Death Row Cookbook

Picture
The last meals of death row convicts fascinate us because they offer an insight into a disturbed mind shortly before its owner’s death. The last meal is a way for the system to offer a last minute nod to humanity; that although these murderers, rapists, and villains listed below may have performed inhuman acts, they are still indeed human. 

The irony of feeding a criminal before killing them by electrocution or lethal injection is not missed on many of the inmates, as we shall see from some of their choices. Controversial and fascinating, the last meals of the condemned will continue to make headlines as long as the death penalty exists.

This book contains both a brief history of the chefs who make the meals and the stories behind the last meals of over two dozen famous death row inmates (recipes are also included, of course).

Cells in Hell: The 15 Worst Prisons on Earth

8/13/2013

1 Comment

 
Picture
The prison system is broken. Most are overcrowded and often work to the convicts favor. But the 15 prisons here will have you thankful that overcrowding is the only issue.

North Korea's Camp 22 works it's prisoners (including women and children) to death...literally; some estimates say up to 2000 die every year. At Venezuela's Maraciabo prison, 130 inmates were either burned or hacked to death with machetes in 1994. Tadmor Prison in Sryia killed over 1000 of it's inmates in 1980.

These are just three of the prisons you’ll find in the pages that follow. If this book doesn't scare you straight, nothing will.

Before 9/11: A Biography of World Trade Center Mastermind Ramzi Yousef

7/26/2013

0 Comments

 
Picture
He plotted to kill Pope John Paul...to crash a plane into CIA headquarters...to blow 11 airliners flying from Asia to the United States. But it isn't the things that he plotted that he is known for--it's the one that was carried out: the 1993 World Trade Center bombing. Today the attack is largely overshadowed by 9/11, but at the time it was one of the most memorable attacks on American soil.

This book provides insight into Yousef life, his planning of the attacks, and, perhaps, one of the most bizarre twists of fates of any Islamic extremist: how he allegedly became a born again Christian while in prison.

But sometimes, often in the most miraculous ways, they are found--months, even years, later.

The 15 stories here recount the stories of some of the worlds most famous kidnapping cases, and shows how the victims survived the cruelty and were ultimately rescued.

Wrongfully Accused: 15 People Sentence to Prison for a Crime They Weren’t Guilty Of

Justice is blind…but it’s not perfect. Everyday, people are convicted or accused of crimes they did not commit. Sometimes the accusations are racially motivated, sometimes they are profiled for the clothes they wear, and sometimes they are just at the wrong place at the wrong time.

The 15 people in this book all share one thing in common: they are innocent, but still sent to prison. You will never look at a court room the same way again!
