Book Description Softcover / Paperback. Condition: Fine. First edition. Paperback. Presented here in dramatic detail are 16 riveting, real-life criminal cases taken from the files of forensic scientists in Europe, America and Britain. Including only those cases solved on the basis of scientific investigation, the author takes us through each one from the viewpoint of the key people involved, and in detailed procedural stages shows how the perpetrators of the crimes were found. Using often minute samples of blood, saliva, hairs and print marks to identify their quarry, the scientists pursue the truth with the intensity of obsession. Illus. + Index. 242pp. p/back. From the library of true crime writer, Wilfred Gregg, with his personal b/plate. On a January night in 1969, Marlene Steele, wife of a judge in an affluent suburb of Cleveland, Ohio, was shot to death as she lay in her bedrooom asleep. The crime gripped the community, and 25yrs. later, in January 1994, the respected Cleveland 'Plain Dealer' devoted 3 full pages to recapitulating this crime and its consequences. Two years after Marlene's death, when a young FBI field agent was assigned to the Cleveland area, police were still hunting her killer. Years later, Robert Ressler would be responsible for inaugurating the FBI's innovative criminal profiling system and helping to set up VICAP, the Bureau's Violent Crimes Apprehension network. He then became deeply involved in the Steele case - an involvement that was to last more than 20yrs. Almost from the beginning, Ressler, among others, felt that Judge Robert Steele, the dead woman's husband, was responsible for the crime. But learning what the real story was, and getting enough evidence to convict Steele and the shooters, was more difficult. It was a long and colourful investigation, involving a cast of prostitutes, pimps, gamblers and murderers-for-hire, set against a background rampant with greed, sex-for-pay, and multiple betrayals. V. Lightly browned pp. o/w Nr. F. with no creasing to covers. Seller Inventory # 10440
