A driver-for-hire was brutally assaulted and his car stolen in Prescott's first homicidal carjacking. Two nurses conspired to poison a rich patient in their care.

Courtney tell rarely heard stories that once rocked the town.

Book Description
An eye-opening account of the shocking murder that has been featured on 48 Hours, Forensic Files, and Investigation Discovery’s Killing Time. Brian Stidham fell in love with Tucson, Arizona, the minute he came to town. A young and talented eye surgeon, he accepted a job with an established eye surgeon to take over his pediatric patients. “It’s a beautiful place,” Stidham told a friend. “I can live right there by the mountains and go hiking. It’s a great deal for me there. The partner I’ll be working with is ultracool. He’s giving me the keys to the kingdom.” Brad Schwartz, the doctor who hired Brian, was ambitious and possessed surgical skills few others had. But he was a troubled man. Within a year of Stidham’s arrival in Tucson, the medical relationship would be severed by Schwartz’s personal troubles. Stidham broke away to start his own practice. Rumors abounded within the medical community that Schwartz was incensed and considered the departure a betrayal. His rage grew, even driving a wedge between him and his fiancée, Lourdes Lopez, a former prosecutor. Three years after Stidham moved to Tucson, his life ended in an empty, darkened parking lot. But who would murder such a nice man in such a violent manner? Lourdes, who had witnessed Schwartz’s toxic rage toward his former partner, feared she knew. But would her suspicions be enough to catch the killer? Find out in Toxic Rage.

Book Description
February 18, 2007: the remains of a child are discovered in a Rubbermaid tub inside a rental storage unit in Tucson, Arizona. Thus begins the child abuse/murder investigation that resulted in new legislation governing Child Protective Services. This is not a dramatic retelling of events, but the day-by-day facts as reported by the lead detective on the case. While certainly of interest to anyone who feels strongly about protecting our children, Investigating the Death of Innocents will also appeal to anyone interested in seeing exactly how a police investigation is carried out, and how it proceeds from the first phone call through to the trial and sentencing of the criminals. This is a story that will break your heart, but also leave you respecting the police investigators and prosecuting attorneys whose dedication and hard work brought this case to a successful conclusion.
