The Girl in the Blue Mustang

MSNBC hides crime-scene photo in plain sight. Just watched a repeat of The Girl in the Blue Mustang , on MSNBC's Dateline . I am addicted to those shows: Dateline ID , 48 Hours , On the Case With Paula Zahn . It is amazing how popular this genre has become; you can find a murder docudrama on 24/7 these days thanks to all the channels available on cable. I am old enough to remember when 2, 4, 5, 7, 9, 11 and 13 were it – and 13 rarely.

John Pappa—Life Behind Bars For A Job Well Done

UPDATED: There are a million stories in the naked city, and in the mob, too. Take the case of John Pappa —books and films could be made about this guy, and perhaps one day will. In May 1999 John Pappa was convicted of racketeering, drug dealing and four murders, including the 12th and final killing of the Colombo family war , which took three years to run its bloody course. The Colombos have probably had more wars than any other family in the Mafia—they have also produced some of the most legendary “gangstars” of our age, including Greg Scarpa and Wild Bill Cutolo .

Tom Selleck's 'Fitz Special' Brings Reality to Blue Bloods

PLEASE READ FIRST READER'S COMMENT BELOW FOR IMPORTANT CORRECTION TO THIS POST [THANK YOU, ANONYMOUS] Is it me or does Tom Selleck 's character Frank Reagan (NYC's fictional Police Commissioner) in Blue Bloods remind you of the character A.J. Cooper, which he played on the now-cancelled but former hit show Las Vegas ? Those of you who watched both shows will notice that both character's are wearing the same gun, which I thought was a 1911, but now, after watching an episode of Blue Bloods where it is specifically mentioned, I understand it is called a Fitz Special. (And I have been reading that he may have even worn the same pistol in Magnum P.I. ; Selleck is a gun collector, I bet it is his own piece.) The website wethearmed.com , a weapons-enthusiast site, offers some interesting insight into Selleck's understanding of guns, and the Fitz Special in particular. I quote: "Anyways, as you are all aware I am sure Tom is a real gun guy.  I was watching an epis...
