GANG MOM

Paperback. Mary Louise Thompson, dubbed "Gang Mom" by a local newspaper for her courageous campaign against gangs, seemed to devote her life to being a surrogate mother, offering troubled teens the caring and support they desperately needed. But no one knew that the plump housewife had masterminded a violent local gang - and ordered a hit on 18yr. old Aaron Iturra in Eugene, Oregon. Now in an account of riveting psychological intensity, the author, a reporter, reveals the uncensored facts of the story he helped to break...about kids looking for kicks and the woman who used them in her own twisted scheme of greed, revenge, and cold-blooded murder. Illus. with 8pp. of photos. 235pp. mass market p/back. From the library of true crime writer, Wilfred Gregg, with his personal b/plate. No creases to covers o/w Nr. F.
