Monster: Inside the Mind of Aileen Wuornos , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 347min
Told in her own words, this is the story of serial killer Aileen Wuornos, who was portrayed in an Oscar-winning performance by Charlize Theron in the film Monster. There have been few female serial killers, but Aileen Wuornos, who was executed in 2002, was a remarkable example of this rare breed of death-row inmate. All too often, female prostitutes have been the victims of male serial killers - Wuornos’ killings were the inverse of this pattern. After escaping an abusive childhood at the hands of her grandparents, she became a child prostitute, progressing into a disastrous adulthood of prostitution and damaging affairs with both men and women. Her eventual metamorphosis from victim to attacker had brutal consequences: a stream of dead men. This is her story, as told to Christopher Berry-Dee, editor of The New Criminologist and director of Britain's Criminology Research Centre. ungekürzt. Language: English.

Bullied to Death: A Story of Bullying, Social Media, and the Suicide of Sherokee Harriman , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 341min
On September 5, 2015, in a public park in LaVergne, Tennessee, 14-year-old Sherokee Harriman drove a kitchen knife into her stomach as other teens watched in horror. Despite attempts to save her, the girl died, and the coroner ruled it a "suicide". But was it? Or was it a crime perpetuated by other teens who had bullied her? Sherokee's short life and tragic death created a national media and social media frenzy, much of it centered on sensationalism rather than the truth. Meanwhile in LaVergne, the community sought answers to questions about who, if anyone, should be held criminally responsible for "bullying". Award-winning author and criminologist Judith A. Yates peels back the layers of sensational news coverage surrounding a girl's death, and in context with national interest in the phenomenon of Internet bullying tries to answer the question of whether Sherokee Harriman was Bullied to Death. ungekürzt.
