The Crimes That Shocked the Entire World Into Silence

The Manson murders. The Holocaust's revelation when the camps were liberated. Rwanda — 800,000 in 100 days while the world watched. September 11 on live television. The institutional child abuse that destroyed the assumption that protectors could be trusted. This book examines the crimes that silence civilizations — what makes some crimes different, and why the most disturbing crimes are the ones that demand the most from those who witnessed them.
