    The sad and troubling fact is that when a child does go missing for nefarious reasons, the person who takes them is most often somebody they know. Given all of the above, something that is a complete rarity occurs when a teenager does go missing, but the authorities have not the slightest indication as to what has happened to them. Even when the news will be the worst imaginable, usually police will have clues or tip offs which lead them hopefully to the living child, but at other times to their body.So it was unusual in that extreme that in the case of Kemberly Ramer no such information has ever made its way to the authorities. Not to local police, state police, nor the FBI who are also involved in the investigation into what is now accepted to be her abduction.

    Author Steve Ubaney launched a three-year fact finding and investigative expedition that explains who wanted her dead, why they wanted her dead, how they did it and how they covered it up. The carefully planned disinformation campaign about Diana's death that was launched by those responsible and promoted to the international media successfully threw millions of people off the trail.Mr. Ubaney puzzled over and explained the following questions revealing how this murder was made possible. Why was eyewitness testimony to the crash given to the French police and then discarded? Why were none of the cameras going in or out of Pont de l'Alma tunnel operational on the night of the crash, and only on the night of the crash? Why did Diana's ambulance pass and ignore taking her to two closer hospitals on their way to getting her to a hospital? Why did it take almost two hours to get Diana medical care? One of the most chilling facts of the investigation (or rather the lack of an investigation) is how fast the crash site was sanitized, hosed down and the roadway reopened. Diana's murder draws a shocking parallel to the mysteriously sanitized death scenes of Elvis Presley, Sonny Liston, Marilyn Monroe and the quickly washed blood splatter in the limousine of JFK which, in every case, if left intact, could have helped investigators solve their murders. These hastily sanitized death scenes did not happen by accident. After carefully explaining all of necessary facts, situations and characters, the book screens the suspects through the necessary steps of motive, means and opportunity. In the end you will all know who was responsible for murdering Diana, The Princess of Wales.

    In 2013 when I published Who Murdered Elvis? I thought that would be the last word on the subject. I was wrong. In the five years since that publication more facts, witnesses, interviews, and incredible personal experiences followed. In one case my life was even threatened.These events were so incredible that I couldn't help but update my information resulting in the new, fifth anniversary edition, that lies before you. With the release of this edition I now have over ten years of investigation into the death of Elvis Presley and I can honestly tell you that almost everything you have been told is wrong.From Graceland trying to make a buck selling their product to the blindly naïve, to crackpot TV specials twisting the truth and ignoring scientific facts, no one has gotten it right. When it comes to the real truth no one else even comes close to amount of research and dedication put forth in this book.

    Who Murdered Elvis? is a celebrity "whodunit" that takes a serious look at the very mysterious death of Elvis Presley. The book does what every good investigation should do. It uses an unbiased process, from beginning to end, to reveal the true cause of his death, the murderer, and the method used. It contains eyewitness testimony from the Medical Examiners Investigator who was the first at the death scene. When the exacting process of Motive, Means and Opportunity were examined there could be only one person responsible. Incredibly, Elvis' doctor, father, co-star, and even his chief of security knew that he was murdered. Immediately after the funeral his father, Vernon Presley, tried to press local law enforcement to investigate, but each attempt was blocked. Vernon would hire two private investigators to probe his famous son's death, but he would die before it was finished. This is the only book that finishes Vernon Presley's murder probe.

    Many people refer to the Lindbergh kidnapping as the "crime of the century," and even after over a century has passed since the terrible events of March 1, 1932, the case is still fascinating and mysterious. The kidnapping and murder of Charles Lindbergh Jr., the aviator's son, and his wife Anne Morrow Lindbergh have been the subject of a notorious case that has spurred skepticism, unrelenting debate, and recurrent court cases concerning the guilt of Bruno Richard Hauptmann, the man found guilty and put to death for the crime. The Lindbergh case is still a powerful reminder of the difficulties of enforcing the law, the impact of sensationalism in the media, and the persistence of seeking the truth in the face of tragedy, even after all these years.

    Have you ever been in contact with a medical or Munchausen by proxy abuser? Are you sure? Have you ever been in a traffic accident, a school lockdown, an office lockdown, an infrastructure failure, a fire, or a power outage? Have you ever been burglarized, stalked, falsely accused of a crime, falsely accused of a scandal, or catfished? Have you ever had your property vandalized, your car sabotaged, your property stolen, or your pets stolen? Have you ever been conned, swindled, or taken advantage of? Have you ever gotten food poisoning? If the answer to any of these questions is yes, you may have been in contact with a MBP abuser. MBP abusers sometimes engage in a wide range of behaviors that extend far beyond the medical field. Certainly, not all such incidents are evidence of MBP, just like not all illnesses are evidence of MBP, but have you ever sensed that something more was going on in a particular case? Have you ever noticed the same person connected to multiple such incidents? In "Anatomy of a Medically Abusive Childhood," Candace Ahalse takes you through one such case - the case of her own childhood.

    Here are many stories of black widows, women who kill their husbands for power or financial gain. These women have been scattered throughout history and the ones who have been caught for their crimes often make us take a second to consider what the people we love, and believe love us, are truly capable of. You may never know whom you are sleeping next to, but should you really be concerned that they will poison your oatmeal or shoot you while you sleep? It's a rare occurrence, but it does happen. One such case comes from the sleepy city of Durham, North Carolina. Durham was a tight knit town, a wholesome community where people were proud to raise their children, work, and attend their churches. And even decades later, the residences of Durham have not forgotten what happened when evil walked through their town.

    Arville Garland was a hard-working, God-fearing traditional man earning a hardscrabble living in Ohio. But his daughter, Sandy, wanted a different life. She wanted college. And education and a career. So she left home to live with her boyfriend. In sin. Worse than that, she moved into what Garland regarded as the epitome of such sin, a hippy commune. But it was worse than that. Arville Garland had not only seen his property take ownership of itself, steal itself from him, but take itself away and challenge every value its rightful owner held. One wonders, from afar, what else had happened to make Sandy despise her father so, but that can only be speculation. For him, it was enough that she had moved in to a commune with her allegedly drug abusing boyfriend. It was in such a state of uninformed fury that Arville Garland set out late on the night of May 7th, 1970. To kill his own daughter...
