UNTOUCHABLE and PRIVILEGED KILLERS
During the run up to the publication of Privileged Killers early next year, I've received many nice endorsements. They're also called "Advance Praise" which publishers solicit and put in the opening pages of many books. Advance Praise For Privileged Killers. I've received "blurbs so far from criminologists, sociologists, true crime writers, and criminal justice personnel so far. An example is the one from the last category: "When it comes to crime writers, you've got your wannabes … [Read more...]
The new Paris Hilton. Are Appearances Deceiving?
One of the themes in this website is "Appearances can be deceiving." In one blog I wrote about the deceptive appearance of President John F. Kennedy. In my last blog I tried to show (and explain to a degree), Paris Hilton's "Barbie" doll phase. We'll look at a number of statements excerpted from a Harper's Bazaar magazine article below. Then you can have a go at sorting out what's going on with Hilton whose autobiography, Paris, The Memoir, came out in March of this year. Is … [Read more...]
Paris Hilton – the First Human Barbie?
It's no surprise that Margot Robbie is playing the first human Barbie in her new movie. Her looks and stature make her a natural to portray Mattel's doll introduced in 1959. But Paris Hilton, too, can resemble the most famous toy of all. And so Paris may've beaten Margot to the punch as the first human Barbie. But wait. We must suspend belief to buy into Barbie becoming human in Robbie's new movie. Likewise, we've got to swallow hard to believe whether Paris was really "human" in her Barbie … [Read more...]
Again, Baldwin and Armorer named in ‘Rust’ legal case.
I recently posted my skepticism about whether justice would be served in the settlement Alec Baldwin made with Halyna Hutchins husband and son. The deal, valid in its provision for support of her son, seemed odd since it also allow Baldwin and other financiers to resume shooting of 'Rust."Apparently renowned lawyer Gloria Allred agrees. She just announced that she's filed a lawsuit on behalf of the late Ms Hutchins' sister and her parents in Ukraine. Baldwin and Armorer named in 'Rust' … [Read more...]
Psychopaths in C-Suites Thrive
Nine years ago, author and psychologist Fred Kiel reported on his research about psychopaths in leadership positions at a Tedx Talk. Psychopaths in C-Suites Kiel titled his talk, "Psychos in the C-Suite." The term C-suite usually refers to a company's top management positions, where the C stands for "Chief," O for Officer). Various chief officers (e.g., C Executive O, C Information O, C Financial O, etc.) occupy the C-suites. Kiel and others suggest C-suites are overpopulated … [Read more...]
The Tinder Swindler – a male Anna Sorokin?
This website is about justice and equity, and so today it's about the Tinder Swindler. It's only fair that I give equal time to a male who's similar to fraudster Anna Sorokin whom I've blogged about here and elsewhere. I have less info about the the Tinder Swindler —Netflix's name for him— than I did about Sorokin, so I promise to add second blog soon about another male who preys financially on women, the Casanova Scammer. And in order not to discriminate visually as well, I'll … [Read more...]
