  • America's Fascination with Multiple Murder
    CHAPTER ONE AMERICA’S FASCINATION WITH MULTIPLE MURDER he break of dawn on November 16, 1957, heralded the start of deer hunting T season in rural Waushara County, Wisconsin. The men of Plainfield went off with their hunting rifles and knives but without any clue of what Edward Gein would do that day. Gein was known to the 647 residents of Plainfield as a quiet man who kept to himself in his aging, dilapidated farmhouse. But when the men of the vil- lage returned from hunting that evening, they learned the awful truth about their 51-year-old neighbor and the atrocities that he had ritualized within the walls of his farmhouse. The first in a series of discoveries that would disrupt the usually tranquil town occurred when Frank Worden arrived at his hardware store after hunting all day. Frank’s mother, Bernice Worden, who had been minding the store, was missing and so was Frank’s truck. But there was a pool of blood on the floor and a trail of blood leading toward the place where the truck had been garaged. The investigation of Bernice’s disappearance and possible homicide led police to the farm of Ed Gein. Because the farm had no electricity, the investigators con- ducted a slow and ominous search with flashlights, methodically scanning the barn for clues. The sheriff’s light suddenly exposed a hanging figure, apparently Mrs. Worden. As Captain Schoephoerster later described in court: Mrs. Worden had been completely dressed out like a deer with her head cut off at the shoulders.

  • The World of Arcadia. a Land Where Mankind Dwells on Floating Islands Both Great and Small
    CYOA Welcome to the world of Arcadia. A land where mankind dwells on floating islands both great and small. Here , people travel between the lands on flying air ships, whether for trade , exploration, or even piracy. Under the six elemental moons, the world flourishes in an age of discovery and exploration. Technology is advancing rapidly and new lands are being discovered, but along with progress comes abuse , and a cold war plagues the greatest nations of Arcadia. Whether you seek excitement or wealth, there unlimited opportunities here in Arcadia. Use your 1000cp wisely, or blow it on junk and earn everything all on your own. Location Roll 1d8 for starting location or pay 100cp to choose . In Arcadia, not all of the continents are in contact with one another , and great sky rifts and reefs block travel between some lands for all but the bravest and craftiest sailors. 1. Silver Islands You start your adventure on one of the small, scattered islands beneath the Silver Moon in Mid-Ocean. No large landmasses lie beneath the Silver Moon, and what few tiny communities exist largely subsist on fishing or the gathering of rare silver moon stones. Other seemingly innocent towns have turned to piracy, like the settlement of Windmill Isle , raiding military or merchant vessels that sail through the sky with impunity. There's no central government to rule over the silver islands, and the largest nearby town is the trading pier of Sailor's Island, which sits where the lands of the Silver , Red, and Yellow moons meet. 2. Nasr Your adventure begins under the light of the Red Moon.

  • Constitutional Law-Fourth Amendment Search and Seizure in the Context of Air Piracy
    CONSTITUTIONAL LAW-FOURTH AMENDMENT SEARCH AND SEIZURE IN THE CONTEXT OF AIR PIRACY In United States v. Moreno' the issue of search and seizure in the context of air piracy gained prominence. The Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit held that anyone anywhere in an airport may be searched if he has a bulge in his coat and evidences devious conduct, is hesitant, and acts suspi- ciously. Abraham Pina Moreno was arrested at the San Antonio Interna- tional Airport on January 21, 1972, for the unlawful possession of heroin with an intent to distribute. Deputy United States Marshal Granados, a member of the airport's Anti-Air Piracy detail with 20 years of experience in law enforcement, noticed that Moreno, upon deplaning, appeared to be quite nervous and wary of the security guards around the airport. Subse- quently, Moreno left the airport in a taxi and returned two hours later. Granados recognized him on his return and once again began observing Moreno as Moreno switched ticket counters several times before finally purchasing a ticket. Moreno then noticed Granados and went into a rest- room. Granados followed, and once inside the restroom Granados noticed a bulge in Moreno's coat. He approached Moreno, identified himself, and asked if anything was wrong. Moreno replied that he was simply a little nervous because of his taxi trip downtown to a hospital and because of the fare back to the airport. Granados became even more suspicious because he had checked with the cab driver and knew that the bus station, not the hospital, had been Moreno's downtown destination.

  • "Son of Sam" Case: First Amendment Analysis and Legislative Implications
    Order Code 92-56 A CRS Report for Congress Received through the CRS Web The “Son of Sam” Case: First Amendment Analysis and Legislative Implications Updated February 27, 2002 -name redacted- Legislative Attorney American Law Division Congressional Research Service The Library of Congress The “Son of Sam” Case: First Amendment Analysis and Legislative Implications Summary In Simon & Schuster, Inc. v. Members of the New York State Crime Victims Board, the United States Supreme Court held that New York State’s “Son of Sam” law was inconsistent with the First Amendment’s guarantee of freedom of speech and press. The Son of Sam law, in the Court’s words, “requires that an accused or convicted criminal’s income from works describing his crime be deposited in an escrow account. These funds are then made available to the victims of the crime and the criminal’s other creditors.” “[T]he Federal Government and most of the States have enacted statutes with similar objectives.” This report examines the Supreme Court decision and then considers whether its rationale renders the federal law unconstitutional. Concluding that it likely does, we consider whether it would be possible to enact a constitutional Son of Sam statute. Finally, we take note of some state Son-of-Sam statutes that have been enacted since the Supreme Court decision. The Court struck down the New York statute apparently because it was both underinclusive in that it applied solely to income derived from the exercise of First Amendment rights, and overinclusive in that it could have applied to books such as Saint Augustine’s Confessions, the inclusion of which would not have advanced the government’s legitimate interest in depriving criminals of the profits of their crimes and using these funds to compensate victims.
