Local Citizenship in a Global Age
Although it is usually assumed that only the federal government can confer citizenship, localities often give residents who are noncitizens at the federal level the benefits of local citizenship: access to medical care, education, housing, security, labor and consumer markets, and even voting rights. In this work, Kenneth A. Stahl demonstrates that while the existence of these 'noncitizen citizens' has helped to reconcile competing commitments within liberal democracy to equality and community, the advance of globalization and the rise of nationalist political leaders like Donald Trump has caused local and federal citizenship to clash. For nationalists, localities' flexible approach to citizenship is a Trojan horse undermining state sovereignty from within, while liberals see local citizenship as the antidote to a reactionary ethnic nationalism. This book should be read by anyone who wants to understand why citizenship has become one of the most important issues in national politics today.

Deadly Mistress
LOVE GONE BAD. MURDER GONE WRONG. West Coast doctor Kenneth Stahl would do anything to free himself from his wife Carolyn. Then Adriana Vasco—Kenneth's former receptionist and mistress of nine years—obliged by introducing him to ex-con Dennis Earl Godley. The deal was set. Godley would murder Carolyn for thirty-thousand dollars. On the day after her 44th birthday, the trusting victim was lured to a lonely stretch of road. The deadly rendezvous took a shocking turn. Not only was Carolyn gunned down with a .357 Magnum, but Kenneth would also be killed. The hit man's getaway driver was the other woman, Adriana Vasco. In a sensational trial, a tangled web of lies, sex, and betrayal unfolded as Adriana and Dennis turned against each other...and Michael Fleeman tells the whole shocking story in his true crime book Deadly Mistress.
Adriana Vasco
Adriana Vasco was a 35-year old mother of two when she had an affair with a 57-year old doctor named Kenneth Stahl. Both Adriana and Kenneth would indulge in a lengthy affair and would later come up with a plan to kill his wife, Carolyn. The doctor wanted out of his marriage but feared the financial consequences of divorce. So when a security guard discovered a car parked along the shoulder of the Ortega Highway on November 20, 1999, with the engine running and the lights on, he assumed it was a couple of kids making out. Instead, he found the bullet-riddled bodies of a prominent Huntington Beach doctor and his optometrist wife sprawled across the vehicle's front seat. These are the events that led up to that fateful night when Adriana Vasco went from a single mother of two children to a hired killer.
