MURDER BEHIND THE BADGE True Stories of Cops Who Kill

Hardback. Foreword by Pat Brown. In a shocking true-crime narrative, the author, a former police officer and former detective, tells 18 shocking stories about cops who kill. These men and women abused their power, took human lives, and are now (except for one) suffering the consequences. Some killed for love, others for money, and still others because of seemingly trivial personality conflicts. Contents include among others : New Orleans cop Antoinette Frank, who brutally murdered 3 innocent people, including a fellow officer. Canton, Ohio, police officer Bobby Cutts Jr., who murdered his former girlfriend when she was 9-months pregnant. California highway patrolman Craig Peyer, who pulled over San Diego State college student Cara Knott for a frivolous traffic violation, then murdered her. New Orleans officer Len Davis, who savagely gunned down a young single mother because she witnessed him committing an act of police brutality. Plus Steven Rios, Richard Wills, Keith Washington, Gerard Schaefer and others. Illus., Reference List and Index. 365pp. lge. 8vo. h/back. As New in dw.
