Black Dahlia Murder Research Paper

Emmett Till was a 14 year old old, African American who was visiting family in Money, Mississippi. Emmett was dared to go to a store and ask out the stor owner, Carolyn Braynt. Emmetts friends heard him say “hey baby” as he was walking out. Carolyne said he wolf-whistled at her. Carolyn was very angr, so she expressed what happened to her husband. Roy bryant, Carolynes husband then went and got his brother in law, J.W. Milam. Early in the morning hours, they kidnapped Emmett. They then took him to the river, gouged out his eyes, tied him to a cotton gin fan, shot him twice, and threw his body in the river.

Orenthal James Simpson, more commonly known as O.J Simpson and “The Juice”. Orenthal was a NFL legend being a running back for the Buffalo Bills and has received many awards during his career and was put into the NFL hall of fame in 1985, however on June 14, 1994 O.J was arrested for the murder of his ex-wife Nicole Brown and Ron Goldman. Should O.J keep his position in the hall of fame? Should he be in jail? Was he innocent? Some of you think these answers are obvious especially for the latter question, however after reading this your answers may change slightly.

Their daughter, Lizzie Borden was the suspect in these murders and mutilations. She was arrested 7 days after the murders on August 11th, 1892. However, a jury found her not guilty after she went to trial.

Why does a 14 year old African American boy have to be brutally murdered for the Civil Rights Movement to be mobilized? Like most Americans in the Southern parts of the United States, they despised African Americans. Many don’t know why they do they just know they’re supposed to.

I personally believe that OJ Simpson killed Nicole and Goldman because there are enough evidences to point out that OJ Simpson did the crime. First of all, Simpson flee from the police and only guilty people would do that because if you know that you did not do anything illegal you’re going to be confident to face the police but Simpson did the opposite therefore that gave me a strong impression that he is guilty for doing the crime. He ran away to Ford Bronco and saying that he is going to commit suicide. Why would anyone try to commit suicide if they said they were innocent that they didn’t do the crime? Simpson tried committing suicide because he knows that he is not innocent and can’t bear the consequences of what he did wrong. They were

was murdered, and she would definitely be worth finding justice for. The most reasonable theory

In 49 short minutes, two high school seniors, Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold murdered 12 students and 1 teacher, and then killed themselves. Months prior, the pair planned out the attacks in a series of journal entries and video diaries. The attack at Columbine High School on April 20, 1999 raised many questions; the biggest one being, why did they do it? While the common media misconception is that the Columbine shooting was a war against jocks and outcasts, the shooting was actually perpetuated by psychopathy and depression in the shooters.

“Harding’s death was extremely violent. He was in great pain. I heard him gasp and moan. I saw his body turn from red to purple.” Carla McClain, a newspaper reporter, witnessed the execution of Donald Eugene Harding on April 6, 1992 by asphyxiation. Of the same execution television journalist, Cameron Harper, said, “Harding’s spasms and jerks lasted 6 minutes and 37 seconds. Obviously, this man was suffering. This was a violent death….an ugly event. We put animals to death more humanely.”

The detective genre is recognizable by the mystery that it represents or establishes. Every word of a fiction novel is chosen with a purpose, and that purpose on a detective novel is to create suspense. The excerpts from The Big Sleep by Raymond Chandler, Murder Is My Business by Lynette Prucha, and Devil in a Blue Dress by Walter Mosley, create an atmosphere of suspense and mystery. Even though they all fit into this category, there are some differences that make each novel unique. The imagery that the authors offer in the excerpts helps the reader to distinguish the similarities and the differences.

When you see the shows such as Homicide Hunter or Killer Instincts many times my mom and I try to figure out who is the murder. Most of the time my prediction is right because of the details my mom misses, and putting together all the clues. From then on I realised I had a gift, even if it was I was just watching television show. That is what sparked my interest the criminal justice area. I have contemplated the career choices that would best fit my interest leaving me with Homicide Detective and Criminologist. While both careers deal with criminal justice they differ greatly in the type of work environment, pay, skills/education.

Over the last 30 years, murders have decreased, but in the 1800’s there was a spike in murders that went unsolved. Most have been solved except for a peculiar one. That peculiar case is the Lizzie Borden case.
