CSI: Normal !?!
Guys Read: Crime and Detection Edition was held on Tuesday, October 24th.
Officer Jerry Worden from the Normal Police Department was our guest speaker–and he brought crime scene photos from a 20-year-old sho
oting case! He plugged the book, Police Lab: How Forensic Science Tracks Down and Convicts Criminals by David Owen, saying that if guys read books about forensics, investigative techniques, etc., then they will be well-equipped to handle a basic course in Criminal Justice, no sweat.
I shared the Stormbreaker movie trailer and found out that the movie isn’t even showing in our town(s)! Guess that’s why they have DVD releases…
Books shared included Zach’s Lie by Roland Smith, Red Kayak by Priscilla Cummings, the Silverfin series (young James Bond) by Charlie Higson, the Chasing the Falconers series by Gordon Korman, Ultimate Spy Book by H. Keith Melton, and Hidden Evidence: Forty True Crimes and How Forensic Science Helped Solve Them by David Owen.
Don’t miss November’s Guys Read (theme & date TBA)–it would be a crime!
