Since the brutal murders of young couples along Virginia’s Colonial Parkway first occurred in the 1980s, there have been many suspects considered. Some of those possible suspects will be discussed tonight at 11:00 P.M. EST on Norfolk, Virginia’s WKTR NewsChannel 3.
Four years ago, Cecil & Doris Babcock, of Dunnellon, Florida, decided to help a young man in need. At the time, 15-year-old Zachary Snyder was on the verge of being put into foster care. Snyder met Doris Babcock while he was staying at a mental health hospital where she worked. The Babcocks took Snyder into their home. Snyder even took to calling 66-year-old Doris Babcock, “Grandma.” He also referred to her as “Mrs. Dee.” It looked as if Zachary Snyder and the Babcock’s were as good as family. However, those loving family ties were just an illusion.
Book Review: The Murder Business – How the Media Turns Crime into Entertainment and Subverts Justice
I’ve seen Mark Fuhrman on television shows, chiming in on current homicide investigations. Of course, I remember him for his role in the O.J. Simpson case –a role which even Fuhrman himself labels “notorious.” In fact, if not for the heavy press coverage of the Simpson case, most of us would probably not even know who Mark Fuhrman is. Using his notoriety, Fuhrman was able to turn things around and he’s made quite a career within the media. So, when I was asked to review his book, “The Murder Business – How the Media Turns Crime into Entertainment and Subverts Justice,” I was more than happy to comply. In this review, I’m not going to tread over old ground. If this book is of interest to you, you’re probably quite familiar with these cases and the events surrounding them. If not, then you probably don’t own a television set or read a newspaper.
