Book Description
Step into some of the most heinous (yet relatively unknown) crimes ever committed and delve into twelve twisted tales of murder in Unbelievable Crimes. From the deplorable abduction and imprisonment of young women by James Jamelske, who kept his victims in his basement, to the tale of charismatic charmer Charles Schmid who boasted about his savage murders, each story dives into pure evil. I'll take you back to 1993, to the city of Houston, where two teenage girls, Jennifer Ertman and Elizabeth Peña, were brutally raped and murdered in a crime so brutal it shook the community. I'll cover the hard-to-hear but important information about the disturbing case as well as what became of the culprits. I'll also delve into the bizarre and twisted story of Carl Tanzler, a man who becomes fixated on a beautiful young woman. After her death, he kept her as a mummified corpse in his home for years, with a truly inexplicable outcome. You'll also be introduced to the gruesome story of Omaima Nelson, an Egyptian-American woman who killed her husband before proceeding to cook and eat parts of his body. While most people know about the incomprehensible acts of Ted Bundy, or the wicked crimes of "killer clown" John Wayne Gacy, there's an underbelly of true crime that has been less covered over the years. Some crimes had a fleeting news story, or a 30-second snippet on a local news station, and have since been long forgotten. These are the crimes we ought to remember, ensuring the victims don't get wiped from the annals of true crime history. Discover the dark side of humanity as we delve into some of the most shocking and twisted little-known true crime stories. To most, the senseless acts of violence and pure evil depicted in these cases are simply unimaginable. But, they're all somebody's reality. Please note, as with all true crime content, this book contains details that cover real life murders and violence.
