Someone I love needs a cure. The ALS Challenge.

August 21, 2014 By Karl Leave a Comment

Am thrilled about the ice bucket fever that’s sweeping the nation…and world (Lindsay Lohan just challenged Prince Harry).

P1070400_2

ALS, also known as  Lou Gehrig’s Disease, is challenging my wife’s sister and her loved ones on a daily basis. I’m so glad that the disease is getting the attention it deserves since we desperately need research to find a cure for this generally fatal disease that strikes randomly and seems to have no rhyme or reason.

 I’m also proud of all of our relatives who’re risen to the occasion in so many ways. Several have raised $1000s via the Walk  to Defeat ALS, sponsored by the ALS Association . Over 70,000 walkers have signed up to walk during the month of October this year, and $13 million has been donated or pledged so far. 

 

My latest book, PRIVILEGED KILLERS, is a true story about a half-dozen Dark Triad people in my everyday life - narcissists, manipulators, and psychopaths. Three of 'em murdered people, and one came after my wife and me. Print and e-book versions of this (and CLEFT HEART) available at Amazon and elsewhere online. Also at your local bookstore.

Testimonials

Schonborn’s courage and candor are impressive as he tells of trying to become ‘normal’ despite endless visits to the doctors and speech therapists who give him a fighting chance at proving naysayers wrong

Celebrities Who Killed People -Some Surprises

    In one of my recent criminology books,Privileged Killers, I examined a celebrity who killed someone: Ira Einhorn was the wellknown  "Prince of Nonviolence" in Philly in the '60s and '70s and even ran for mayor of the City of Brotherly Love. Einhorn blamed others for killing … [Read More...]

Soc-psych aspects of white-collar crime

  Sociological & Psychological aspects. With large scale corruption soon to be unleashed on us as business regulators have been sent packing by the Trump administration, we should refresh ourselves as to what constitutes white  collar crime. It does range from executives in … [Read More...]

Dissociation

“Dissociation (MPD)” resulted as Psychopathic Dad Trafficked her.

  I've written a good deal about the violent consequences of psychopathic behavior: here and here. And while I write about some of the the nonviolent consequences in my book Privileged Killers, I've not written about the dissociation result. As many celebrate the great things dads do on … [Read More...]

A Test to see if you have a Psychopath in your Life.

Do you know a psychopath? I certainly do. My latest book, Privileged Killers,  is about a few who crossed paths with me in my everyday life. Not about some whom I encountered as an academic criminologist doing research. For some who've wondered if their partner or a friend might be dangerous … [Read More...]
