  1. I watched and also read many crime movies and books but most of all i like LEON (the professional) it is about how the professional assassin rescues a teenage girl whose parents were killed in a police raid. The teenage girl likes and is interested about his work and asks him to teach how to use the gun and how to kill. but the man is against that but finally he agrees and going to teach all that the teenage girl asked. Then they live like daughter and father they love each other. and in the end of the film the man was killed. i think about the teenage girl it is not good to be a professional killer in that age. it is horrible. But she is alone without family without father mother and brother and she do not care about her own life.

  2. Recently I have read about convicted rapist, torturer and serial killer, Rodney Alcala. He evaded justice for 40 years. He killed many people, but his first known victim was Tali Shapiro. Tali was an 8-year-old on her way to school when she was lured into Alcala's car, an act that did not go unnoticed by a nearby motorist who followed the two and contacted police. Alcala took Tali into his apartment where he raped, beat and attempted to strangle her with a 10-pound metal bar. When police arrived, they kicked in the door and found Tali laying on the kitchen floor in a large puddle of blood and not breathing. Because of the brutality of the beating they thought she was dead and begin to search for Alcala in the apartment. A police officer, returning to the kitchen, saw Tali struggling to breathe. All attention went to trying to keep her alive and at some point Alcala managed to slip out the backdoor. Fortunately she recovered from the attack. But this was only begining. After he commited a lot of horrible crimes.But the police culdn't find evidence of a crime. Eventually, On Feb. 25, 2010, the jury found Alcala guilty of five counts of capital murder, one count of kidnapping and four counts of rape. During the penalty phase, Alcala attempted to sway the jury away from the death penalty by playing the song "Alice's Restaurant" by Arlo Guthrie, which includes the lyrics, "I mean, I wanna, I wanna kill. Kill. I wanna, I wanna see, I wanna see blood and gore and guts and veins in my teeth. Eat dead burnt bodies. I mean kill, Kill, KILL, KILL." His strategy did not work and the jury quickly recommended the death penalty to which the judge agreed.

  3. Andres Berhing Breivik is the perpetrator of the 2011 Norway attacks. In a sequential bombing and mass shooting on 22 July 2011, he bombed government buildings in Oslo, resulting in eight deaths, then carried out a mass shooting at a camp of the Workers' Youth League of the Labour Party on the island of Utoya, where he killed 69 people, mostly teenagers.He was convicted of mass murder, causing a fatal explosion, and terrorism in August 2012/
    Breivik described his far-right militant ideology in a compendium of texts entitled 2083: A European Declaration of Independence, which he distributed electronically on the day of the attacks In it he lays out his worldview, which includes Islamophobia, support of Zionism and opposition to feminism.Breivik wrote that his main motive for the atrocities was to market his manifesto.
    Two teams of court-appointed psychiatrists examined Breivik prior to his trial; in the first report Breivik was diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia and a second evaluation was commissioned following widespread criticism of the first report.The second psychiatric evaluation was published one week before the trial, concluding that Breivik was not psychotic during the attacks nor during the evaluation;he was diagnosed with narcissistic personality disorder His trial began on 16 April 2012, and closing arguments were held on 22 June.
    On 24 August 2012, Oslo District Court found Breivik sane and guilty of murdering 77 people. He was sentenced to 21 years of preventive detention, a special form of prison sentence, with a minimum of 10 years and the possibility of extension for as long as he is deemed a danger to society; he will probably remain in prison for life.This is the maximum penalty in Norway. Breivik announced that he does not recognize the legitimacy of the court, and therefore does not accept its decision—though he claims he "cannot" appeal, as this would legitimize Oslo District Court/

  4. Here is teh story (awful just no words to say aomething abput it you decide ) : "James Bulger, who was just short of his third birthday, was murdered in February 1993 by two ten-year-old boys who lured him away from a Liverpool shopping arcade while his mother was distracted.

    The boys, Robert Thompson and Jon Venables, led the crying toddler on a two and a half mile walk across the city to Walton.

    There, on a rarely used piece of railway, they used bricks and sticks to beat and torture him and finally killed him by repeatedly dropping a 22lbs piece of steel railway track on his head.

    The killers then placed his body across a rail hoping people would think he had been killed by a train.

    When he was found two days later his body had been cut in half by a freight train but police examinations showed he was already dead before he was run over.

    CCTV from the shopping centre showed him being led away by the two older boys, who were soon caught.

    Thompson and Venables were tried and convicted, becoming the youngest murderers ever in British history.

  5. i read many films about the famous crime,but my favorite book is ,,Romeo must die''.This book is about one man who is Jet lee and who is policeman.There are also other peoples group and they are killers.one day on of thous man killed jet lee's family after this accident jet lee goes in japan and investigate this crime.one year late he found this person and bring in prison,but at the same time he felt very bad,because killer who killed his children is live and he can't punish him.A few years later when this killer left prison,he also killed people. Jet lee understood that while this killer is live he can"t live calm..and he also started to catch this person,,after several years of searching he found and killed him. Finally jet lee understood that the biggest pain is impossible to forget,until you investigate revenge.to conclude i think this book is close to real life.people always thinks and remember their families,relatives and if someone killed our love people we always try to punish the murder.

  6. firs of all, the best story I have ever heard is about Frank Abagnale. he was a criminal who, before his 19th birthday, successfully conned millions of dollars' worth of checks as a Pan Am pilot, doctor, and legal prosecutor. he was very smart, deft and could fool others.
    he wasq 16-year-old high school student who finds himself emotionally cut adrift when his mother leaves his father. One day at school, Frank Jr. attempts to pass himself off as a substitute teacher, and easily makes the subterfuge work. His small-scale success gives Frank some ideas, and he soon discovers bigger and more profitable ways of hoaxing others, passing himself off as an airline pilot, a doctor, and an attorney. Along the way, Frank learns how to become a master forger, and uses his talent and charm to pass over 2.5 million dollars in phony checks. Frank's increasingly audacious work soon attracts the attention of Carl Hanratty - an FBI agent who is determined to put Frank behind bars. Frank seems to enjoy being pursued by Carl, and even goes so far as to call Carl on the phone to chat every once in a while.
    after all, FBI agent finally catches him. and Frank works with him. this story was very impressive and from real life it became a successful movie: "catch me if you can". this is the best movie ever and i can watch and watch more and more :))
