{PDF EPUB} Serial Killer Stranglers Serial Killer Quick Reference Guides #1 by Kevin Smith Kevin Smith Survives 'Massive Heart Attack' After Being Rushed to Hospital Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} Serial Killer Stranglers Serial Killer Quick Reference Guides #1 by Kevin Smith Kevin Smith survives 'massive heart attack' after being rushed to hospital. American filmmaker Kevin Smith — best known for helming Clerks and Chasing Amy — has revealed he survived a “massive heart attack” over the weekend. The 47-year-old Tweeted a picture of himself from a hospital bed covered with tubes on Monday (26 February) morning. Smith had performed a stand-up show the evening prior, and was due to perform again but cancelled the second show. “After the first show this evening, I had a massive heart attack,” he wrote on social media alongside the picture. “The Doctor who saved my life told me I had 100 per cent blockage of my LAD artery (aka “the Widow-Maker”). If I hadn’t canceled show two to go to the hospital, I would’ve died tonight. But for now, I’m still above ground!” Fans were quick to respond on social media, including Guardians of the Galaxy actor Chris Pratt, who wrote: “Kevin we don’t know each other too good but I have loved you since Clerks and I’m praying my ass off for you cause I believe in the healing power of prayer.” Writer Sean Francis posted to Twitter: “I keep reading this in shock. Damn. It’s an understatement to say, but myself and so many others are glad you cancelled and are recovering. Sending love to you and yours.” Smith had performed a stand-up show at 6pm PT at the Alex Theater in Glendale, California, and was due to perform once again at 9pm. The comic book writer and filmmaker posted the photo from hospital 21 minutes after midnight, local time. Smith later posted a lengthy message to Facebook , explaining what had happened: "I was trying to do a killer stand-up special this evening but I might’ve gone too far," the post reads. "After the first show, I felt kinda nauseous. I threw up a little but it didn’t seem to help. Then I started sweating buckets and my chest felt heavy. Turns out I had a massive heart attack. The Doctor who saved my life at the Glendale hospital told me I had 100 per cent blockage of my LAD artery (also known as “the Widow-Maker” because when it goes, you’re a goner). "If I hadn’t canceled the second show to go to the hospital, the Doc said I would’ve died tonight. For now, I’m still above ground! But this is what I learned about myself during this crisis: death was always the thing I was most terrified of in life. When the time came, I never imagined I’d ever be able to die with dignity - I assumed I’d die screaming, like my Dad (who lost his life to a massive heart attack). But even as they cut into my groin to slip a stent into the lethal Widow-Maker, I was filled with a sense of calm. Recommended. "I’ve had a great life: loved by parents who raised me to become the individual I am. I’ve had a weird, wonderful career in all sorts of media, amazing friends, the best wife in the world and an incredible daughter who made me a Dad. But as I stared into the infinite, I realized I was relatively content. Yes, I’d miss life as it moved on without me - and I was bummed we weren’t gonna get to make Jay and Silent Bob reboot before I shuffled loose the mortal coil. But generally speaking, I was okay with the end, if this was gonna be it. "I’ve gotten to do so many cool things and I’ve had so many adventures - how could I be shitty about finally paying the tab. But the good folks at the Glendale hospital had other plans and the expertise to mend me. Total strangers saved my life tonight (as well as my friends Jordan Monsanto and Mily Dawn, who called the ambulance). "This is all a part of my mythology now and I’m sure I’ll be facing some lifestyle changes (maybe it’s time to go Vegan). But the point of this post is to tell you that I faced my greatest fear tonight. and it wasn’t as bad as I’ve always imagined it’d be. I don’t want my life to end but if it ends, I can’t complain. It was such a gift." Join our new commenting forum. Join thought-provoking conversations, follow other Independent readers and see their replies. Who was Shannan Gilbert? True story behind Lifetime's 'The Long Island Serial Killer: A Mother's Hunt for Justice' Streaming platforms are always on the search for content based on real-life events. The storylines instantly make a connection with the viewers and give them a reel-life perspective of a particular event that shocked the entire world. One such movie that is set to take the viewers on a roller- coaster ride is Lifetime’s upcoming project ‘The Long Island Serial Killer: A Mother’s Hunt for Justice’. The true-crime movie revolves around a woman named Mari Gilbert and her search for the truth behind what happened to her daughter Shannan, a sometime escort who disappeared after a ‘date’ on Long Island. The movie is based on one of the most notorious criminals of all time - the Long Island Serial Killer. RELATED ARTICLES. With the release of the movie just around the corner, there comes some curiosity — who is the Long Island Serial Killer? What’s his real-name? And why did he kill so many women? The story of the upcoming movie revolves around the notorious Long Island Serial Killer, an unidentified suspected serial killer who has killed 10 to 17 people over a period of nearly 20 years. The serial killer grabbed all the attention after the disappearance of the 24-year-old female escort, who was reported missing on May 1, 2010. Shannan Gilbert (Facebook) According to the investigation, Gilbert was last seen running from one of her client’s home in the Oak Beach area. Authorities launched an extensive search after finding a body in the same area and what happened next was something even more terrifying. Two days later police officers found three more bodies on the north side of the Ocean Parkway. Finding four bodies in the same area sent shockwaves among the people, with police saying that recovering four bodies from the same area was “not a coincidence”. Police did not stop the investigation and began searching for more bodies. To everyone’s horror, in 2011, four more bodies were discovered in another area off the parkway, near Osk Beach and Gilgo Beach. There was a sense of panic among the people of Long Island who started to give the police a lot of information that could lead them to the killer. Meanwhile, some believed that the killer is a rogue police officer who has served in the area. Suffolk County Police and police recruits search an area of beach near where police recently found human remains on April 5, 2011 in Babylon, New York. (Getty Images) However, Det. Lt. Kevin Smith categorically said that the rumors are baseless. Smith said, “For anyone to come out and say that it’s a specific person, a specific occupation, or a specific type is unfair and I think it’s mere suspicion, it’s mere speculation. Right now, it could be anybody.” In the next few weeks, an additional set of partial human remains were found along with a separate skull. After an extensive search for almost a year, Shannan Gilbert’s remains were found in a marsh about half a mile from where she had disappeared. A week earlier, they had found some of her clothes and belongings in the nearby area. Identity of the Killer. According to various media reports, the serial killer is most likely a white male who is very familiar with the South Shore of Long Island and is in his mid-20s to mid-40s. A former resident of Long Island, Joel Rifkin, may have been responsible for all the murders. However, he denied having a role in any of the killings. Joel Rifkin (YouTube) Victims. Four out of the 10 bodies or remains found since late 2010 were identified as missing prostitutes. Apart from them, police were able to identify only two other victims. Names of the identified victims were: Maureen Brainard-Barnes, Melissa Barthélemy, Megan Waterman, Amber Lynn Costello, Jessica Taylor, and Valerie Mack. It will be interesting to see how Lifetime tackles the movie because Shannan Gilbert’s case is still “unsolved.” The movie will exclusively premiere on Lifetime on Saturday, February 20, at 8 pm ET and stars Kim Delaney and Katherine Isabelle in pivotal roles.

Kevin Smith wants to write an Arrow arc for The CW and bring in Onomatopoeia, the Green Arrow villain he created. Kevin Smith has been making the rounds as of late, promoting 'The Runaway Dinosaur,' the episode of The Flash that he directed. The hour is the antepenultimate installment of the Scarlet Speedster's second season and naturally, all eyes will be on it to see not only how it ties in to the upcoming finale and what will presumably be The Flash's climactic run-in with Zoom, but also to see how the director of Clerks , Mallrats , and the upcoming Yoga Hosers handles the FX-heavy world of The CW's fastest superhero show.

  • Serial Killers
    CHAPTER SEVEN SERIAL KILLERS hanks in part to a fascination with anything that is “serial,” whether it be T murder, rape, arson, or robbery, there has been a tendency to focus a good deal of attention on the timing of different types of multiple murder. Thus, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) distinguishes between spree killers who take the lives of several victims over a short period of time without a cooling-off period and serial killers who murder a number of people over weeks, months, or years, but in between their attacks live relatively normal lives.1 In 2008, for example, Nicholasdistribute T. Sheley, then 28, went on a killing spree across two states, beating as many as eight people to death over a period of several days in an effort to get money to buy crack. Sheley’s victims ranged from a child to a 93-year-old man.or At the time of these incidents, Sheley already had a long criminal history of robbery, drugs, and weapons convictions and had spent time in prison. Sheley is doing life in prison in Illinois for six of the murders and faces two additional homicide charges in Missouri. Unfortunately, the distinction between spree and serial killing can easily break down. For example, over the course of 2 weeks in 1997, Andrew Cunanan killed two victims in Minnesota, then drove to Illinois,post, where he killed another person, and then on to New Jersey, where he killed his fourth victim. While evading apprehension, and on the FBI’s 10 Most Wanted List, Cunanan was labeled a spree killer.
