Inside the Mind of a Serial Rapist

This book is not for weak, bleeding heart liberals. My aim is to tell what I learned from the mouths of 61 men who remembered close to 400 sexual assaults and forgot the rest. It all started one day when I saw this sign: "ALL MEN ARE POTENTIAL RAPISTS, BEWARE!" No, I cried at no one and everyone, and decided to examine the question. It was clear that the power brokers turned the study of rape into a political obsession instead of a criminal investigation. Rape, they said, was a devise used by aggressive men to enslave women. Some women were no longer willing to accept the lead of aggressive men. Maybe they're right, but not all men want to control women. Angry women, and some should be, think so! Now, as evidenced by that sign, some angry women stirred concerns inside me demanding inquiry. After the average god-fearing male reads the accounts of violence, manipulation, torture, sexual murder, necrophilla and cannibalism and thinks he's anything like the offenders in this study, then it might be safe to say that all women are potential whores, and that ain't right either.

An Introduction to American Policing demonstrates the quest to maintain both public safety and freedom by providing a balanced yet critical investigation of police history and theory. It connects criminal justice, criminology, and law enforcement knowledge to the progress of the police community. Case studies, narratives from violators, and current research coverage help students recognize the central theories and practical (documented) realities of American law enforcement. Students are encouraged to consider the way some believe policing "should be" while examining evidence about the "way it is." This text will also provide a current description of local and state police organization partnerships with federal organizations and of the efforts accomplished by federal law enforcement agencies including the Department of Homeland Securities (DHS). An Introduction to American Policing helps students learn good judgment and combines scholarly theory with practical police experience to equip your students with the information they need to become successful police officers.
