This true crime investigation into the notorious case of Kieran Kelly reveals “new twists that add further intrigue to the mystery” (Irish Post). On the evening of August 21,1983, Metropolitan Police detectives raced to London’s Clapham Police Station to find a prisoner dead. His cellmate sat quietly in the corner. Kieran Kelly, a laborer from Ireland, calmly confessed to strangling the prisoner—and then stunned officers by confessing to dozens of unreported and unsolved murders over the previous 30 years. Kelly may have been Britain’s most prolific serial killer, yet he was convicted on just two of his admissions. In 2015, a former police officer who worked on the case made a bombshell accusation: that Kelly' crimes were covered up by the British Government. Strangulations, murders on the London Underground, an internal Metropolitan Police review—as the story’s elements whipped the international news media into a frenzy, journalist Robert Mulhern set off from London to rural Ireland on a methodical search for the truth. Could Kieran Kelly really have murdered 31 times?
Litigation finance sits at the intersection of many well-known subjects within the law school curriculum: contracts, torts, civil procedure, evidence, professional responsibility, insurance, and capital markets. There are no professionally produced materials for a professor who wants to teach an entire semester-long course on litigation finance. This casebook is an attempt to fill that gap.

Behind 3G lives a serial killer. She had some notoriety among child-abuse medical professionals, since she was the featured perpetrator in the original medical journal article that named shaken baby syndrome as an entity in 1972. The woman behind this apartment door had shaken, twisted, squeezed and slapped babies in the 1940s and '50s - killing three and injuring twelve others. Did she even remember her victims' names? She had known, and later admitted, that what she did was wrong, but after her first murder, because of ther volatility, this knowledge hadn't stopped her from striking out. This was the true nature of a serial killer, having no remorse and no ownership for her nefarious deeds. This was a national story that quickly got swept away. Lilacs in the Rain was written to bring it all back and educate the public. This book is at once the history and the beginning of shaken baby syndrome.
