How race may still affect outcomes despite opportunities.

February 20, 2024 By Karl Leave a Comment

  I had the pleasure last month to meet Jimmy Hatch for the second time in several years. He's a decorated, wounded Navy Seal vet.** He started Yale four years ago as a "nontraditional" student at age 52. He stood out on campus because of his age and definite real world prep as opposed to the often prep-school prep of his much younger young classmates. Hatch came to the attention of a trio of Yale classmates who run a monthly zoom forum featuring interesting people to showcase. … [Read more...]

Casanova Scammer uses “Privilege”

June 25, 2022 By Karl Leave a Comment

Casanova Scammer

  Privileged Offenders.  Here's yet another take on privileged criminals. They create a "privileged" persona to scam others. I just blogged here about Simon Leviev, the Tinder Swindler, who worked this angle to the max. The Casanova Scammer Brian Wedgeworth seemed to have a way with women.                 Posing as a medical doctor who had attended  such Ivy-ish universities as U Penn, Duke, and … [Read more...]

Elite school bias? Surprise report.

July 27, 2021 By Karl Leave a Comment

Elite school bias?

  As readers of this blog know, I write often about discrimination of various sorts. My tendency is to spotlight discrimination in crim justice institutions. But I've written about other institutions such as the US Navy, the Catholic Church, and the like. Some American researchers just released a report on elite school bias. And  it seems to put to rest, at least temporarily, an ongoing debate that intensified a number of years ago. Then, a lawsuit was filed against Harvard College, … [Read more...]

June 20, 2021 By Karl Leave a Comment

true crime websleuths

        This is an introductory tutorial about true crime Websleuths, an online forum that allows all of us to play detective. In prior tutorials, I've tried to help both crime writers and criminal justice students understand how, say, the FBI goes about investigations. This blog shows you the basics of how to participate in true crime Websleuths. Later blogs will get into how the popular site has evolved and some of the hiccups it's experienced. The … [Read more...]

Celebs & CEOs are likely to beat the rap in college fraud.

Celebs & CEOs are likely to beat the rap

As  someone who got into Yale the hard, old-fashioned way, the fact that celebs & CEOs are likely to beat the rap for bribing colleges outrages me. I've blogged about bias and discrimination in favor  celebs and other elites before. Most recently, here and here. The defendants are a "catalogue of wealth and privilege,” U.S. Attorney Andrew Lelling  said during his press conference announcing charges.Most importantly, he also said,  "There can be no separate college-admissions system … [Read more...]

White supremacy increasing. Need civil rights activist heroes.

Civil Rights Activist Men in MLK's Orbit

Calling the civil rights activist — wherever you may be. We need you now. Why" To combat the rise in hate crimes experienced worldwide. Data from multiple sources suggest this is so, not just info from news accounts about egregious crimes. The latest being the terror attacks on two New Zealand mosques, killing 50 and injuring 50. We need the likes of  Martin Luther King, Jr. and many of the men and women in his orbit. We know a lot about the civil rights activist  Jesse Jackson, for … [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.

Bad Boy Diddy Combs

When Bad Boy Diddy visited Borinda

  It's uncanny that another "baddie" - Bad Boy Diddy Combs - was in my neighborhood, likely up to no good. In my recently published Privileged Killers-  which is about murderers who had been aquaintances of mine during the heyday of murder and serial killing- I explain how Richard Ramirez,  … [Read More...]
