From Jack Henry Abbott, who stabbed a waiter through the heart for
not allowing him to use the toilet, to the ?Zodiac, ? an unknown
California serial killer who may have murdered as many as 37
people, this reference work details 280 of the most famous murder
cases of the twentieth century. Each entry contains, when
applicable, birth and death dates, aliases, occupation, location of
the murders, weapons used, number of victims, and the time period
when the killings occurred. Films, plays, television shows, videos
and audio programs based on or inspired by the case are then cited,
followed by a brief overview of the murder case and a bibliography
of English-language works related to it.
A companion volume to the author's Suicide in the Entertainment
Industry: An Encyclopedia of 840 Twentieth Century Cases (2002),
this reference work chronicles 298 cases of what can be broadly
defined as "celebrity" homicides from the early twentieth century
onward. Cases are drawn from the realms of film, theatre, music,
dance and other entertainment fields. In each instance, the person
was either the actual or suspected perpetrator or the victim of a
murder. Included are entries on such well-known personalities as
film comedian Roscoe "Fatty" Arbuckle, actress Sharon Tate, music
producer Phil Spector, rap artist Notorious B.I.G., and superstar
Michael Jackson. Each entry covers the crime, its legal
disposition, and the subject's personal and professional
background, comprehensively documented with notes and a separate
bibliography.

This is the author's story of faith, hope and love as he learns to
understand that God loves him, a homosexual priest. It is not a
memoir or autobiography, but rather it is the author's account of
how over the years he has dealt with the fact that he is a
homosexual who is afraid that it is not proper for a priest to be a
queer. It takes him a long time to get over the fear. It took him a
long time to learn to be honest about himself. He wonders why it
took him so long to be honest about himself. In addition to
answering these questions, the other purpose of the book is to
attempt to help other gay and lesbian people who are wrestling with
the same questions. One of the hopes of this book is to take the
author's experience and use it to help initiate a process of change
in the hearts and minds of the Vestries and Search Committees of
parishes looking for a new Vicar or Rector, and also a change in
the hearts and minds of people responsible for hiring decisions in
church institutions and Dioceses around the country. It is the hope
of this book to support the change in acceptance of others that is
surely coming over the church and over the world.
