True Crime Writer - ADOLF HITLER: 10 Things You Never Knew About Him - June 2013

During WW2, American psychiatrists labelled him a "schizophrenic" and "psychopath". Winston Churchill
wanted to borrow an electric chair from the USA so he could be executed like a "common criminal" in Britain. But what's the truth about the man behind the dictator's mask?
Adolf Hitler was one of life's pathetic losers - a school dunce, a failed artist, a sexual impotent, a sociopathic racist and a drug addict.  Read my feature story "Adolf Hitler - 10 Things You Never Knew About him" published in CRIMEMAGAZINE.COM here.

True Crime Writer: IS SERIAL KILLER STEVE WRIGHT INNOCENT? March 2013

The murders of five prostitutes by the Suffolk Strangler in 2006 set off one of the largest manhunts in British history. DNA evidence led to the arrest and conviction of a man who admitted he had sex with four of the five dead women, but was he the actual serial killer? What about the driver of the blue BMW which was hardly mentioned in court? Is the real Suffolk Strangler still on the loose?

TRUE CRIME WRITER: Profile of the LONG ISLAND SERIAL KILLER - January 2012 by Siobhan Pat Mulcahy

In the Long Island Serial Killer case, New York police have only identified 5 of the 10 victims. They believe all the women and the man dressed in women's clothing had worked as prostitutes and that the baby belonged to one of the women. Forensic testing of the victims' remains has revealed that some of the murders may have taken place as far back as 1996.
Using the results from the comparisons between 5 modern day serial killers (now in jail) and recent police and newspaper reports concerning the Long Island murders, it is possible to create a detailed profile of the killer who has yet to be caught.

TRUE CRIME WRITER: Modern day serial killers and JACK THE RIPPER - October 2011 by Siobhan Pat Mulcahy

MODERN DAY SERIAL KILLERS Peter Sutcliffe, Robert Hansen, Gary Ridgway, Robert Pickton and Steven Wright are known to be responsible for the murders of more than 100 women – mainly prostitutes. Between them, they claim to have killed more than 150 women, though even this figure may be higher.
When each serial killer's profile is examined, there are many similarities across their lives, including: family background, academic ability, employment record, criminal record (prior to murder), motive and character traits. I've used these similarities to create a retrospective profile of the most infamous prostitute killer of them all – JACK THE RIPPER. You can read my new profile of Jack the Ripper published as an 8-page pull-out in TRUE CRIME magazine (Issue: October 2011) here Twitter: @siobhanpatmul
