Jamaica has one of the highest rates of gun deaths in the world. In the three decades from the 1970s, gun crimes and murders threatened to destroy the political system if not the island. The fatality rate of police in the line of duty was among the highest in the world, as was the number of civilians killed by the police. Into this melee came a young police officer called Isaiah Laing. During the height of his period in the Force, he had the dubious reputation of fatally wounding more criminals in the line of duty than any other officer. With his good looks, designer clothes, and flamboyant life style, he attracted both interest and criticism.Point Blank Range skillfully charts the rise of Jamaican icon Isaiah Laing, and tells the story of crime, violence and corruption in 1970s, 80s and 90s Jamaica.

Lady Killer Richard Namey, 26, drug abuser and woman-beater, had already threatened a previous girlfriend with a gun, but she'd gotten away. Sarah Rodriquez, 21, wasn't so lucky. On April 16, 2002, in Orange County, California, she and her true love, Matt Corbett, 20, were forced off the road by Namey, who shot them both at point-blank range with a .357. Sarah was killed. Corbett was paralyzed for life. Real Hero After a 42-mile chase, Namey was finally cornered in a drainage tunnel by a police dog. He pleaded manslaughter, claiming he'd really meant to kill himself in front of Sarah. No deal. The man he faced was not your average deputy district attorney: Dennis Conway had pulled himself out of a wayward life torn by seemingly insurmountable tragedy and into law school. He knew all about guys like Namey--and exactly where to find the holes in his story. The verdict: first-degree murder, life sentence. Score one for the good guys. Includes 16 pages of shocking photos.
"A memoir by Vanessa O'Brien, record-breaking American-British explorer, takes you on an unexpected journey to the top of the world's highest mountains"--
I did get shot and it is my problem. A bullet fired at point-blank range, slammed into my chest, clipped my lung, narrowly missed my heart and lodged in my spine, paralyzing me from the chest down - and I had to deal with it. I still have to deal with it every day. That is my problem. Now, what is your problem? What do you have to deal with today - or every day? Do you have something lodged in you - maybe not in your spine, but perhaps in your heart or mind - that causes you pain and makes you feel paralyzed one way or another? What position are you taking relative to your problems? In other words, what is your attitude relative to your situation? Technically, that is what attitude is; it is simply a position.
Using trial records and extensive interviews, Solis brings to life the host of military and civilian attorneys, judges, and juries who wrestled with these and other thorny questions in the midst of a combat zone.
