Lets Kill Mom
The murder of Linda Andersen by her two teenage daughters
(Bob Mitchell, “The class project” (2014) is a clear example of what started off as not breaking the law, but, after further review and supported speculation was found that the girls did in fact break the law by murdering their mother for illicit greed, motivated by visions of champagne holidays and expanded luxury. Their deviance, however, has been used in a narrow sense
(Quinney, 1965; Robertson and Taylor, 1973, pp. 61-62).

    Karen Armstrong is a historian of monotheistic religions. In” Murderous Martyrdom: Religion or politics?” Armstrong relies heavily on Logos to support her claim that the use of suicide attacks is a political weapon of manipulation, rather than a collective Islamic tendency. Armstrong draws compelling, supporting evidence from a Gallup poll covering 35 countries, consisting of both moderate and radical Muslims, stating her evidence logically in support of political motivations. Support for politically motivated violence begins by referencing Robert Pape’s study conclusions that 95% of suicide attacks between 1980 and 2004 intended to compel withdrawal of Western powers from homelands. Moreover, in paragraph 4, the Gallup poll respondents indicated:…

    In 1903 the late Mrs. Annie Johnson of Arkansas found herself with two toddling sons, very little money, a slight ability to read and add simple numbers. To this picture add a disastrous marriage and the burdensome fact that Mrs. Johnson was a Negro. When she told her husband, Mr. William Johnson, of her dissatisfaction with their marriage, he conceded that he too found it to be less than he expected, and had been secretly hoping to leave and study religion.

He did not tell her that he knew a minister in Enid with whom he could study and who had a friendly, unmarried daughter. They parted amicably, Annie keeping the one-room house and William taking most of the cash to carry himself to Oklahoma.…

    1 )Thousands of people have been wrongly locked away and have falsely admitted to many murders, but we will never know the real truth behind it all. Although we wish to see inside the mind of a killer, we may never get to. The real reasons people get murdered, are simply beyond our knowledge. Since we cannot dive into the psychological and mental reasons people murder others, we can stick with diving into the fascination of the unsolved cases. For many years now, people have been obsessed with creepy and unexplainable cases.…

    While reading the book A Death In Texas by Dina Temple-Raston, I found many differences in our current society compared to Jasper just a decade ago. While reading this book I noticed right away how certain parts of Texas are segregated, including Jasper. I understand that the location does make a difference. Here in Washington there wasn’t a lot of diversity a century ago and we were a lot like the 1998 Jasper. Our “Other” or “Them” were the Chinese. Whereas, just a decade ago, in Jasper, the police department was lenient towards hate crimes and didn’t care if they occurred until Sheriff Rowles was elected. He was colorblind and believed in justice for all. When the murder of James Byrd occurred in 1998 it changed everything in Jasper and drew the attention of the entire United States.…

    Almost every murder has a motive, some darker than others, so In 1999 when Adnan Syed murdered Hae Min Lee how dark was his motive? In 2014 Sarah koenig did a podcast about this murder and took some of finding the facts into her own hands and explore the case. With all the evidence however, I believe the state had it right. The fact that Jay Wilds had no reason to lie about Adnan being the killer, comboed with Jay's story of matching all the cell phone records paints a strong picture; Adnan killed Hae out of anger for her breaking his heart.…

    Between 7.30 and 8.30 every morning except Sundays, Johnnie Butt made the round of the village of Chipping Cleghorn on his bicycle, whistling vociferously through his teeth, and alighting at each house or cottage to shove through the letterbox such morning papers as had been ordered by the occupants of the house in question from Mr Totman, stationer, of the High Street. Thus, at Colonel and Mrs Easterbrook's he delivered The Times and the Daily Graphic; at Mrs Swettenham's he left The Times and the Daily Worker; at Miss Hinchcliffe and Miss Murgatroyd's he left the Daily Telegraph and the New Chronicle; at Miss Blacklock's he left the Telegraph, The Times and the Daily Mail. At all these houses, and indeed at practically every house in Chipping Cleghorn, he delivered every Friday a copy of the North Benham News and Chipping Cleghorn Gazette, known locally simply as 'the Gazette'. Thus, on Friday mornings, after a hurried glance at the headlines in the daily paper (International situation critical! U.N.O. meets today! Bloodhounds seek blonde typist's killer! Three collieries idle. Twenty-three die of food poisoning in Seaside Hotel, etc.) most of the inhabitants of Chipping Cleghorn eagerly opened the Gazette and plunged into the local news. After a cursory glance at Correspondence (in which the passionate hates and feuds of rural life found full play) nine out of ten subscribers then turned to the PERSONAL column. Here were grouped together higgledy-piggledy articles for Sale or Wanted, frenzied appeals for Domestic Help, innumerable insertions regarding dogs, announcements concerning poultry and garden equipment; and various other items of an interesting nature to those living in the small community of Chipping Cleghorn. This particular Friday, October 29th - was no exception to the rule –…
