Lexicon of Un-Expiated Murders
Unsolved Cases - undetected crimes - controversial acquittals
Sensational murders and perfect crimes that have remained unsolved to this day. Only reality can be as gripping as this!
»Of course there is such a thing as a perfect murder, otherwise we’d know about them!« thus spoke Alfred Hitchcock. The many files languishing in the data banks of the investigating authorities supply ample evidence of the fact that there is indeed such as thing as the perfect murder. Hans-Dieter Otto presents numerous murder cases from the long list of unsolved crimes, cases in which, to this day, no culprit has been tracked down. The most extraordinary fact of all: half of all homicides remain undetected because of doctors’ tendency to issue death certificates far too perfunctorily or to carry out superficial post-mortems.
Hans-Dieter Otto, born in 1937, trained as a lawyer and went on to work in a managing position in an insurance firm. His »Lexicon of Miscarriages of Justice« made it into the bestseller lists in 2003. Previous publications at Herbig: »Lexicon of Military Fallacies«, »Lexicon of Fatal Errors in World War II«, and »In the Name of Fallacy!«.
