ESCAPE FROM ALCATRAZ: True Stories of Jail Breaks and Great EscapesDespite their place in popular culture, jail breaks are an incredibly daring prospect for any criminal to undertake. In most countries, escaping from jail is a very serious offence and will certainly result in a harsher punishment once the subject has been re-captured. Depending on the severity of the crime for which the offender was originally imprisoned, an attempted jail break can result in a significantly longer sentence.The cases covered in this volume are a combination of those prisoners who went to extreme lengths in order to free themselves from the confines of jail, those who broke free as a declaration of their innocence, and those who simply pounded at the first opportunity to escape. The fascination of each case cannot be over-stated, as well as the unimaginable bravery and audacity each one required.

How To Get Away With Murder: Evil Masterminds Who Evaded Capture"There appear to be two types of situations in which one can be said to literally get away with murder. The first, and most common, is that the killer remained unknown until his criminal activity stopped. The second is that the killer was apprehended and tried, but was found innocent due to lack of evidence, loopholes in the justice system, or some other type of underhanded tactic.The cases which follow are all instances in which a perpetrator of a horrific crime evaded capture and continued to live their lives without repercussion. For each case, the actual truth is entirely unknown, and there exists the very real possibility that the killer (or killers) were imprisoned, died or suffered a similar deserved fate once their crimes ceased."Contains shocking true stories of evil murderers who got off scot-free, including serial killers who still remain at large. How To Get Away With Murder paints the true stories of some of the most horrific criminals to escape true justice.
