Hoppmann Narrator: Jürgen G. H. Hoppmann Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 6 hours 1 minute Release date: October 14, 2024 Genres: True Crime Publisher's Summary: Die Macht von Stasi-Seilschaften im Justizapparat erlebt der Autor, seit er sich Mitte der 2000er-Jahre mit dem Thema beschäftigt. Infolge dessen wird er mit Schau- und Scheinprozessen im Stil des Stalinismus überzogen. Seiner ältesten Tochter Heide brachte der Rechtsbruch 2017 den Tod. Für seine witzigen Krimis musste er 2022 ins Gefängnis, Autorenlesungen wurden verboten. Sämtliche Aktenduplikate des Bundesarchivs frei zugänglich via truecrime.cloud Dass vermutlich die Bündnisgrünen dabei ihre Hand im Spiel haben, erklärt sich aus der Tatsache, dass informelle Mitarbeiter der Stasi im Herbst 1989 bei der Gründung des Neuen Forums eine ausschlaggebende Rolle spielten, heutzutage immer noch aktiv sind und zusammen mit dubiosen Geschäftsleuten, die nach der Wende aus dem Westen kamen, die Macht über die Stadt ausüben. »Ein Einzelfall« schrieb das Investigativ-Ressort der ZEIT. Ist dem wirklich so? Die hier geschilderten Vorgängen sind exemplarisch für Rechtlosigkeit in Ostdeutschland, die auch von Bündnisgrünen getragen wird und Menschen in die Arme von Rechts- und Linkspopulisten treibt. Jürgen G. H. Hoppmann, Autor, Filmemacher und freier Journalist. Er engagiert sich als überzeugter Europäer bei Volt Deutschland. Quellenlage: Forschungsaufträge bei Stasi-Arciven und Berlin, Leipzig und Dresden, sowie Informanten und Zeitzeugen - sachdienliche Hinweise vertraulich behandelt und anonymisiert. Der Autor nimmt für sich den Wistleblower-Schutz der Europäischen Kommission in Anspruch, da Rechtsmissbrauch der Zusammenhalt der EU gefährdet.

Title: [Spanish] - El caso Cumbres: Toda la verdad sobre los crímenes de Diego Santoy Author: Javier Munguía Narrator: Jaime Collepardo Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 7 hours 24 minutes Release date: October 10, 2024 Genres: True Crime Publisher's Summary: Pocos casos criminales del México reciente son tan conocidos y a la vez mal comprendidos, incluso distorsionados por los medios de comunicación y seudoinvestigadores de las redes, como el ataque de Diego Santoy a la familia Peña Coss, ocurrido el 2 de marzo de 2006, en la colonia Cumbres, de Monterrey Tras huir y ser capturado, Santoy admitió haber agredido a su exnovia Érika y asesinado a los hermanos de ella, Érik y María Fernanda, solo unos niños, además de secuestrar a Catalina, la empleada doméstica de la familia. Menos de un mes después, Santoy acusó a Érika de ser la asesina de los niños. Su segundo relato fue ampliamente aceptado y produjo otras versiones que acabaron por enturbiar la verdad de forma perdurable. Provisto de información extraviada o nunca asimilada y uniendo las piezas de la historia de forma minuciosa, Javier Munguía propone al lector de El caso Cumbres reexaminar los hechos bajo otra óptica y enfrentarse a un escenario inquietante: una sociedad que da la espalda a las víctimas y se convierte en uno más de sus verdugos.

Title: Ghosts of Crook County: An Oil Fortune, a Phantom Child, and the Fight for Indigenous Land Author: Russell Cobb Narrator: Chris Baetens Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 9 hours 22 minutes Release date: October 8, 2024 Genres: True Crime Publisher's Summary: The true—and unsolved—story of unabashedly greedy men, their exploitation of Muscogee land, and the hunt for the ghost of a boy who may never have existed For readers of David Grann’s award-winning Killers of the Flower Moon In the early 1900s, at the dawn of the “American Century,” few knew the intoxicating power of greed better than white men on the forefront of the black gold rush. When oil was discovered in Oklahoma, these counterfeit tycoons impersonated, defrauded, and murdered Native property owners to snatch up hundreds of acres of oil-rich land. Writer and fourth-generation Oklahoman Russell Cobb sets the stage for one such oilman’s chicanery: Tulsa entrepreneur Charles Page’s campaign for a young Muscogee boy’s land in Creek County. Problem was, “Tommy Atkins,” the boy in question, had died years prior—if he ever lived at all. Ghosts of Crook County traces Tommy’s mythologized life through Page’s relentless pursuit of his land. We meet Minnie Atkins and the two other women who claimed to be Tommy’s “real” mother. Minnie would testify a story of her son’s life and death that fulfilled the legal requirements for his land to be transferred to Page. And we meet Tommy himself—or the men who proclaimed themselves to be him, alive and well in court. Through evocative storytelling, Cobb chronicles with unflinching precision the lasting effects of land-grabbing white men on Indigenous peoples. What emerges are the interconnected stories of unabashedly greedy men, the exploitation of Indigenous land, and the legacy of a boy who may never have existed.

Title: Unredacted: Russia, Trump, and the Fight for Democracy Author: Christopher Steele Narrator: Christopher Steele Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 8 hours 52 minutes Release date: October 8, 2024 Genres: True Crime Publisher's Summary: The intelligence officer behind the explosive “Steele Dossier” steps out of the shadows, revealing a searing new report on the threat Putin and Trump pose to democracy, based on alarming intelligence exposed in these pages for the first time “Putin is now desperate to have Donald Trump back in the White House. If he succeeds in helping Trump get reelected, I am convinced that the global political order will be utterly changed. We shall have entered a new historical era of strategic chaos, a ‘new world disorder.’ The consequences of Trump winning the 2024 election are catastrophic.” –from Unredacted To a unique degree, Christopher Steele has been an eyewitness observer of modern Russian history. He was a British diplomat and intelligence professional in Moscow when the Soviet Union was collapsing. Steele was there when the putsch against Mikhail Gorbachev took place and when Boris Yeltsin took over the newly independent Russia. After Vladimir Putin came to power, Steele rose to become one of British government’s leading Russia experts and played a central role in the investigation into the Kremlin-ordered murder of Alexander Litvinenko. Then, in 2016, he wrote a series of explosive reports about the then presidential candidate Donald Trump and his links to Russia. Now known to the world as the “Steele Dossier,” these intelligence documents drew the world’s attention to Russia’s relationship with Trump—and reluctantly thrust Steele into the center of a global maelstrom. Since Trump’s election, he has quietly continued his work. Indeed, Steele has had even better access to sources of information and intelligence on Russia—ones that have given him a privileged view of what’s going on inside the Kremlin, and how much we in the West should worry about it.  In Unredacted, Steele shares for the first time what that inside view looks like, how he came to the point of gaining such a level of insight, and what Western governments—and all of us—can and should do to counter this generational threat.

Title: Den of Spies: The Untold Story of Reagan, Carter and the Treason that Stole the White House Author: Craig Unger Narrator: Jason Culp Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 12 hours 7 minutes Release date: October 1, 2024 Genres: True Crime Publisher's Summary: Argo meets Spotlight, as New York Times bestselling author Craig Unger reveals his thirty-year investigation into the secret collusion between Ronald Reagan’s 1980 presidential campaign and Iran, raising urgent questions about what happens when foreign meddling in elections goes unpunished Argo meets Spotlight, as New York Times bestselling author Craig Unger reveals his thirty-year investigation into the secret collusion between Ronald Reagan’s 1980 presidential campaign and Iran, raising urgent questions about what happens when foreign meddling in our elections goes unpunished and what gets remembered when the political price for treason is victory. In April 1991, the New York Times ran an op-ed alleging that Ronald Reagan’s 1980 presidential campaign had conspired with the Iranian government to delay the release of 52 American hostages until after the 1980 election. The Iranian hostage crisis was President Jimmy Carter’s largest political vulnerability, and his lack of success freeing them ultimately sealed his fate at the ballot box. In return for keeping Americans in captivity until Reagan assumed the oath of office, the Republicans had secretly funneled arms to Iran. Treasonous and illegal, the operation—planned and executed by Reagan’s campaign manager Bill Casey—amounted to a shadow foreign policy run by private citizens that ensured Reagan’s victory. Investigative journalist Craig Unger was one of the first reporters covering the October Surprise—initially for Esquire and then Newsweek—and while attempting to unravel the mystery, he was fired, sued, and ostracized by the Washington press corps, as a counter narrative took hold: The October Surprise was a hoax. Now Unger finally reveals the definitive story and sharing startling truths about what really happened in 1980. The result is a real-life political thriller filled with double agents, CIA operatives, slippery politicians, KGB documents, wealthy Republicans, and dogged journalists. Timely and provocative, with powerful echoes of Trump-era political scandals, Den of Spies demonstrates the stakes of allowing the politics of the moment to obscure the writing of our history.

Title: Opus: The Cult of Dark Money, Human Trafficking, and Right-Wing Conspiracy inside the Catholic Church Author: Gareth Gore Narrator: Gareth Gore Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 13 hours 55 minutes Release date: October 1, 2024 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 5 of Total 1 Ratings of Narrator: 5 of Total 1 Genres: True Crime Publisher's Summary: A thrilling exposé recounting how members of Opus Dei—a secretive, ultra-conservative Catholic sect—pushed its radical agenda within the Church and around the globe, using billions of dollars siphoned from one of the world’s largest banks. For over half a century, Banco Popular was one of the most profitable banks in the world—until one day, in 2017, when the Spanish bank suddenly collapsed overnight. When investigative journalist Gareth Gore was dispatched to report on the story, he expected to find yet another case of unbridled capitalist ambition gone wrong. Instead, he uncovered decades of deception that hid one of the most brazen cases of corporate pillaging in history, perpetrated by a group of men sworn to celibacy and self-flagellation who had secretly controlled Popular and abused their positions there to help spread Opus Dei to every corner of the world. Drawing on unparalleled access to bank records, insider accounts, and exclusive interviews with whistle-blowers from within Opus Dei, Gore reveals how money from the bank was used to lure unsuspecting recruits—some of them only children—into a life of servitude. He also tracks the ascent of Opus Dei within the United States, exposing its role in bankrolling many right-wing causes, including the Supreme Court’s overturning of Roe v. Wade. In an era of disinformation and deep fakes, here is a real-life conspiracy which hid in plain sight for more than sixty years. Gore tells a shocking story of money and power that spans decades and continents. Documenting Opus Dei’s secret history for the first time, this thrilling work of investigative storytelling raises important questions about the dark forces that shape our society.

Title: The Barn: The Murder of Emmett Till and the Cradle of American Racism Author: Wright Thompson Narrator: Wright Thompson Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 11 hours 38 minutes Release date: September 26, 2024 Genres: True Crime Publisher's Summary: Brought to you by Penguin. How forces from around the world converged on the Mississippi Delta to bring about the most consequential murder in US history. Emmett Till’s murder is one of the most infamous in American history; a moment that, more than any other, awakened the world to the racism of the Deep South. Yet despite growing up just a few miles from where it happened, Wright Thompson knew nothing of it until he left Mississippi. This is no accident: the cover-up began at once, and it is ongoing. Over the course of five years’ research, Thompson has learnt that almost every part of the standard account of Till’s killing is wrong. In August 1955, after the two men charged with the murder were acquitted by an all-white jury, they gave a false confession to a journalist: one that was misleading about where the murder took place and who was involved. We now know that at least eight people were present, and many more complicit. And we now know precisely where it took place: inside a barn on a 36-square-mile grid called Township 22 North, Range 4 West. This book tells the story of that barn. It is the story of what really happened on the night of August 28, 1955, and of the individuals who have spent decades bringing the truth to light. And it is the story of the centuries-old forces that made that night inevitable: forces that, over the course of 200 years, transformed Township 22 North, Range 4 West from Choctaw land, to a slave plantation, to a sharecropper’s farm, to the site of the most significant murder in US history. The result is a revelatory work of investigative reportage and a panoramic new history of white supremacy in America. It maps the road that the US – and the world – must travel to heal its oldest, deepest wound. © Wright Thompson 2024 (P) Penguin Audio 2024
