Book Description
For many years, the Chicago south side neighborhood was virtually free of crime. Every once in awhile someone would commit a burglary, or a theft, and the police charged with keeping the neighborhood free of crime almost always captured the offender. However, in the year of 2010, three Bridgeport women were found raped and murdered in an alley adjacent to White Sox Park. As such crimes were rare in the area, the entire police department, fearing for the safety of women, went on a massive manhunt for the killer. That manhunt took a strange unexpected turn, as the evidence the department gathered indicated that one of its own members, namely John McBride, may have murdered the woman. This novels traces the investigation which led to John McBride's arrest and his trial.

Pages : 468
Book Description
This is a fully documented inside examination of the Internal Revenue Service, in many ways the largest and most powerful of all federal agencies, and also the agency whose competent function is most essential to our democracy. The book’s appearance in 1989 sparked a public furor and major legislation attempting to redress the IRS’ many abuses of power, both political and bureaucratic. The book will be a relevant handbook as long as the agency remains a towering presence in American life.

The Politics of Safety
Author: Shannon King
Publisher: UNC Press Books
ISBN: 1469676184
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 212
Book Description
For much of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, public officials in cities like New York, Chicago, and Baltimore have criminalized uprisings as portending Black "thugs" throwing rocks at police and plundering private property to undermine complaints of police violence. Liberal mayors like Fiorello H. La Guardia have often been the deftest practitioners of this strategy. As the Depression and wartime conditions spurred youth crime, white New Yorkers' anxieties—about crime, the movement of Black people into white neighborhoods, and headlines featuring Black "hoodlums" emblazoned all over the white media—drove their support for the expansion of police patrols in the city, especially in Harlem and Bedford-Stuyvesant. Though Blacks also called for police protection and for La Guardia to provide equitable municipal resources, they primarily received more punishment. This set the stage for the Harlem uprising of 1943. Shannon King uncovers how Black activism for safety was a struggle against police brutality and crime, highlighting how the police withholding protection operated as a form of police violence and an abridgement of their civil rights. By decentering familiar narratives of riots, King places Black activism against harm at the center of the Black freedom struggle, revealing how Black neighborhoods became occupied territories in La Guardia's New York.
