A male escort and sometimes model, Magnotta had earned his notoriety by videotaping himself stabbing Chinese student Lin Jun to death with an … [Read more...]
THE SHAWCROSS LETTERS Co-Author John Paul Fay Discusses His Experience On The Dr. Phil Show
Watch the show on August 29th, 2018! Some family and associates were sure that Dr. Phil would "demolish" me. And one or two even voiced their concerns that Phil might upset me to a point of throttling the ever-popular daytime talk show host with my bare hands.

Brian Whitney On Helping Write THE SHAWCROSS LETTERS
When I first was approached to help write THE SHAWCROSS LETTERS I had no idea what I was getting into. I knew it to be the story of Arthur Shawcross, one of America’s most notorious serial killers, and his friendship with a man named John Paul Fay. As a fan of true crime, I have read books before where a famous killer befriended a member of society, and I always found them lacking, they always seem to be reaching for something, promising some … [Read more...]

Co-Author Of RAW DEAL Brian Whitney On Why He Has Decided To Help Tell “The Cannibal Cop” Gil Valle’s Side Of The Story
Raw Deal is already getting a lot of press. I knew it would. The story of Gil Valle, also known as 'The Cannibal Cop', is simply too juicy to ignore. Much of the press has completely missed the greater point of the book of course, although I expect this to change when the book actually comes out. I am not complaining mind you, the saying “no press is bad press” holds true in pretty much any circumstance. For now though, most of the press has … [Read more...]
