Fifty Shades of True Crime: Sex, Drugs, and Killer Kink by Douglas Fifer Amazon.com Dougfifer.com The primary sex organ is the brain, an unrelenting and powerful receptor of aphrodisiacs, hardwired to get down and dirty and capable of imagining anything. You might think doggy style or downloading porn is getting your freak on, but you are about to indulge in a different realm of freakish sexual behavior. It is impossible to properly prepare you for what is contained within this book. What you are about to read and see, you'll never be able to unread or unsee. Cops witness it all, and as a seasoned twenty-five-year law enforcement officer, I will lead you through some of the strangest and darkest moments of humanity. Buckle up for the ride of your life as Fifty Shades of True Crime sets into motion a bizarre trajectory of next-level carnal knowledge. You'll never look at your neighbor the same way, you'll wonder about your best friend, and you'll imagine what your coworker does behind closed doors. Deviant sexual behavior is part of our human psyche, and as offensive as it may seem to some people, it happens in your community. Usually, the private world of people's lives remains undisclosed, but those secrets will come alive as you explore these real-life events. You'll get the opportunity to play "Name That Crime," a soul-searching experience that lets the reader pick a perp's perversion. "The Last Climax" will uncover what happens when we exceed the human limits of hypersexuality. And finally, if you want to spice up your love life, "Teachable Tidbits" is a step-by-step tutorial filled with naughty nuggets. Proceed with caution as you discover that your sexual desires might not be so freaky after all . . . or maybe they are?About the author Doug Fifer is a retired Alaskan police officer who specialized in crime scene analysis, deviant sexual crimes, hostage negotiations, and various special assignments throughout his twenty-five-year career. He started in law enforcement with the Anchorage Police Department in 1996 and retired in 2021. Born in the small town of Homer, Alaska, Doug and his wife, Kim, raised their children in the Anchorage area. His family originates from southeast Alaska, mainly around the Ketchikan area. He is Tlingit Indian and heavily connected to his Alaska Native culture and heritage. Doug and Kim are also avid oenophiles who started a wine business in Anchorage in 2007. Alaskans have a passionate love for the outdoors, and the Fifer family is no exception. Fishing, hiking, snowboarding, and extreme sports top their list. Their family dog, Malbec, is considered one of the kids and snowboards a bit too. As the author of Fifty Shades of True Crime, Doug brings to life stories so bizarre, so intense, and so twisted that the reader will be left speechless. This is not your run-of-the-mill true crime; it's straight from the source, an author-led journey into how far some will go to achieve their sexually freakish desires. You've never read a book quite like this one; it's a cringeworthy reality check on humanity. You might think you can handle the truth, but this cop's truth is as savage as it gets. When asked about the stressors of being a cop, Doug replied, “Humor plays a key role in keeping your sanity, not just in law enforcement but life in general.” His writing certainly reflects this philosophy, as Doug believes in taking life seriously—just not too seriously.

Mike Livingston specializes in the cultural heritage of the Aleutian and Pribilof Islands. His background makes him uniquely qualified for this position. He grew up in Cold Bay, Alaska, located on the Aleutians, and his family homesteaded where Trout Creek flows into Cold Bay. He says they didn't have much money, so they lived a subsistence lifestyle and built their home using remnants left on the island from World War II. At 21, he moved to Unalaska and worked as a police officer for three years, then he moved to Anchorage and was an officer for the Anchorage Police Department for 20 years. In that time, he worked in a number of different departments: burglary, theft, felony assaults, the crimes against children unit, and the major crimes unit. His work in law enforcement and his research into the Unangax̂ region — in addition to a local murder he remembers from when he was 16 — eventually led him to his work with Murdered and Missing Indigenous Persons. More recently, Mike's been focused on ways to integrate ancient sod housing design into the construction of modern houses. Traditional sod houses were used in the Aleutian Islands and the Alaska Peninsula for at least 10,000 years. They were so energy efficient that their carbon footprint was virtually non-existent. He's also been working on correcting historical inaccuracies of Benny Benson, the boy who designed the Alaska flag in 1927. The research he's involved in found that Benny was not of Alutiiq heritage, like it's been believed for decades, but of Unangax̂ heritage.

Known for his adept negotiation skills, he successfully convinced two notorious serial killers to surrender, an experience he openly talks about in this interview which is available as a free podcast on our website, Apple Podcasts, Spotify and most major podcast platforms. Doug Fifer's story is not just about his police career in Anchorage, Alaska, but also about his deep connection to his Alaskan roots. Born in Homer, Alaska, his family hails from the Ketchikan area. He is Tlingit Indian and heavily connected to his Alaska Native culture and heritage. Together with his wife, they raised their children in Anchorage, immersed in the outdoor lifestyle typical of Alaskans, from fishing and hiking to snowboarding with their family dog, Malbec.

Be sure to follow the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast on Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, Newsbreak and Medium and numerous other social media platforms. Throughout his career, Doug specialized in crime scene analysis, deviant sexual crimes, and special assignments that often brought him face-to-face with criminals whose actions shocked even the most seasoned officers. His extensive experience is chronicled in his new book, Fifty Shades of True Crime: Sex, Drugs, and Killer Kink. This isn't a typical true crime book; it's a raw, unfiltered dive into the darkest aspects of human behavior. Doug takes readers on a journey into the twisted minds of criminals whose actions are as terrifying as they are bizarre. Doug shares his philosophy on handling the stress of law enforcement, stating, “Humor plays a key role in keeping your sanity, not just in law enforcement but life in general.” His writing reflects this outlook, maintaining a balance between the gravity of his experiences and a light-hearted approach to life's challenges. Alaska Police Career Talking to and Arresting Serial Killers. One of the most notorious cases Doug was involved in was that of Joshua Alan Wade, an Alaskan serial killer convicted of multiple murders. Wade's criminal history is both lengthy and disturbing. Born in 1980, Wade committed his first murder at the age of 14, shooting John Michael Martin, an unemployed schizophrenic, along a bike trail in Anchorage in 1994. Over the years, his violent tendencies escalated. In 2000, Wade brutally murdered Della Brown, an Alaska Native woman, and left her body in an abandoned shed. He continued his killing spree in 2007 by murdering his neighbor, Mindy Schloss, a nurse practitioner, after kidnapping her, robbing her, and ultimately shooting her execution-style in the back of the head. Wade's arrest followed a dramatic police pursuit and negotiation. After his girlfriend and other witnesses identified him in surveillance footage using Schloss's stolen ATM card, Wade went into hiding. When finally cornered, he held hostages at gunpoint before being persuaded to surrender by then Officer Doug Fifer. The case was a stark reminder of the complexities and dangers law enforcement officers like Doug Fifer face every day. Alaska Police Career Talking to and Arresting Serial Killers. Doug also delves into the case of Israel Keyes, another serial killer whose actions shocked the nation. Keyes was responsible for multiple murders across the United States, including Alaska. Arrested in 2012, he confessed to the crimes while awaiting trial. He committed suicide in his cell, leaving behind disturbing clues about his other possible victims. His story adds another layer of darkness to the criminal landscape of Alaska. Listen to the interview is available as a podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, our website and most major podcast Platforms. Doug Fifer's book offers a glimpse into these cases and more, revealing the true nature of the crimes and the impact they have on communities.

June 19, 2001. Anchorage Alaska. While staying at a motel, 52-year old registered nurse Thomas Nuzzi fails to check out and does not show up for his next scheduled work assignment in the town of Bethel. Six days later, Thomas' abandoned Jeep is found at a remote ski lodge in Chugach State Park, but an extensive search of the area fails to find him. In the days prior to his disappearance, Thomas was seen with an unidentified man and woman. The couple continued to occupy Thomas' motel room after he vanished, but they are never tracked down and it's unclear if they had any involvement in what happened to Thomas. Was Thomas Nuzzi the victim of foul play or did he orchestrate his own disappearance? On this week's episode of “The Trail Went Cold”, we explore a puzzling unsolved missing persons case from Alaska.

An Army soldier has been charged with first-degree murder and tampering with evidence in the death of his newlywed wife. Zarrius Hildabrand, 21, a member of the Alaska National Guard's 2nd Infantry Brigade Combat Team, stands accused of fatally shooting his wife, Saria Hildabrand, also 21, and then attempting to cover up the crime by stashing her body in a storm drain. The Anchorage Police Department revealed that the disturbing series of events began when Hildabrand reported Saria missing on the evening of Monday, August 7. The couple had returned home in the early hours of Sunday, August 6, after celebrating Zarrius' birthday with friends. A neighbor later reported hearing a gunshot in the vicinity around 2:45 a.m. on Sunday. Hildabrand initially claimed that Saria had walked to work at a local restaurant between 9 a.m. and 10 a.m. that same day, saying they were both too hungover to drive. He reported her missing to the police when he went to pick her up from work at 7 p.m. and realized she never arrived. Desperate and concerned, he turned to social media, posting messages on Facebook about his wife's disappearance and even assisting Saria's mother, Meredith Barney, in searching for her. However, the unfolding investigation raised serious doubts about Hildabrand's account. A friend of the couple informed the police that Saria had not planned to work on August 6. Contradictions in Hildabrand's statements and evidence found at their apartment led detectives to delve deeper into the case. When police searched the couple's apartment, they discovered two loaded pistols on the kitchen table, one of which was missing a bullet. Detectives also noticed peculiar details, including a missing bed sheet replaced by a mattress pad with new sheets nearby. Hildabrand's reluctance to let the police inspect the bed raised further suspicions. As the investigation progressed, more incriminating evidence emerged. Hildabrand was found to have purchased a variety of items on August 6, including a jar of marinara sauce, a set of sheets matching those in their apartment, a mattress cover, hydrogen peroxide, and an empty spray bottle. A large 96-gallon garbage can was also purchased from a nearby store. Police later located a mop and mop bucket that matched those sold on the same aisle as the garbage can. Tragically, the investigation reached its conclusion when a drone search uncovered Saria Hildabrand's remains concealed in a 4-by-5-foot storm drain near the couple's apartment. She had suffered a gunshot wound to the left temple. The couple, who had met during basic training the previous summer, were married in December 2022. Saria had moved from Utah to Alaska just six months prior to be with her new husband. Zarrius Hildabrand was appointed a public defender and is being held on a $500,000 bond.

This episode, after heavy considerations of mysticism, trance states, dreams, abnormal psychology, possession, and even some true crime, we are jumping full-on into the serial killer rabbit to discuss the killer I grew up with -- well, he was stalking the hiking trails I grew up on and murdered a barista downtown while I was in high school. This infamous and cowardly murderer is one of two Alaskan serial killers: Israel Keyes (the other one being Robert Hansen) and not only did I grow up in his hunting grounds, my dad actually polygraphed his last victim's boyfriend and father, along with other work done on the case for the Anchorage Police Department. The victim's name was Samantha Koenig, and this was the impulsive kidnap-abduction-murder that would ultimately end with Keyes writing bad poetry and slitting his wrists in a prison cell. It's believed (though not confirmed) that Keyes murdered eleven people, but police were unequivocally certain of three. Samantha was not only the last victim, but the only victim actually taken by Keyes in Alaska. Although he'd planned for the options of more in the future, for the prior ten murders he'd kept several rules that he'd maintained, including: no kills in his home state, no children, no cell phones, and cash from bank robberies only. He's also know known for his heavy reliance on what are dubbed as "murder kits", which were literally serial-killing-buried-treasure full of all the essentials for his job and kept track of with maps. And if all that wasn't enough, he was a self-proclaimed Satanist as well! Join me as we summarize Keyes' profile, backstory, and timeline, even getting into some philosophy and esotericism along the way. my website Dive Manual Hunt Manual Israel Keyes links to quotes I read: NY Post Oxygen The Brag Biography This week's featured music!

Glen Klinkhart is a former homicide detective, and in 1981 his older sister was sexually assaulted and murdered at their home in Anchorage, Alaska. She had thrown a party at her house and after everyone left, a nineteen year old classmate returned. To cover up his crime, he burned down their house. He was later caught and sentenced to 75 years in prison. Glen says that we can intellectualize why people commit heinous crimes as much as we want to, but the reason is ultimately very simple: People do it because they want to. Now, that choice might be corrupted by other things like anger, deviancy, mental illness or drugs, but at the end of the day it's a conscious choice. The outcome of which is devastating to all those it affects. He says that, so often, the crime perpetrated on someone becomes their identity. It becomes all consuming and can result in a lifetime of guilt and bitterness. But recently, Glen has found ways to let go of those feelings. One of them is digitizing all of his dad's 35 mm slides. He's going through so many family photos and it's giving him the opportunity to see his sister through a whole new lens, as the beautiful young woman she was. Years ago, Glen was teaching a homicide class and one of his students asked him if having a murdered sister made him a better detective or did it make the job more difficult. He'd never thought about it before that moment, but he'll always remember his response. He said, “You don't have to have a murdered sister to be a good homicide detective, but it helps.” That became the first sentence in his true crime memoir, “Finding Bethany.” The book details his upbringing all the way to him becoming a detective for the Anchorage Police Department, with a focus on finding a young woman named Bethany Correira. He says that, in addition to his sense of duty to her and her family, working Bethany's case — a case that had so many similarities to his sister's — also helped him process his sister's murder.

On July 17, 1980, the skeletal remains of a female were found buried along a power line in a heavily wooded area in Eklutna, Alaska. She had been stabbed in the back. In 1984, a local baker named Robert Hansen, AKA “The Butcher Baker,” listed her among the 17 to 21 women he admitted to killing in and around Anchorage between 1971 to 1983. The victim had no identification and could not be matched to a missing persons report. Hansen said the woman might have said she or her family lived in Kodiak. Robert Hansen died in prison in 2014. Police believe Annie may have come to Alaska from Washington or California and may have been a runaway. Eklutna Annie is described as a white and possibly Native American female, aged 16-25, 4'11” - 5'3”, weight unknown and eye color unknown with long, light brown hair. There are no available dental records, fingerprints or DNA samples. She was wearing reddish-brown knee-high high-heeled vinyl boots with a nylon zipper on the side, a light colored sleeveless knit sweater, and a brown leather hip-length jacket.

"Hey, don't shoot, I understand what's going on, don't shoot. We can work this out."Just after midnight on 19 October 1985, Douglas Cleaves was relaxing with his sister and two of his friends at his home in Anchorage, Alaska. The four had eaten dinner earlier that evening and were watching "Fame" when they heard a couple of loud knocks at the front door. Doug's sister, Susan, got up to get it. Standing at the door was a masked figure wearing a balaclava, combat gloves, and a tan-colored trench coat, who was holding what looked like a bolt-action hunting rifle. This unknown individual stormed inside and shot Doug five times, ignoring the man's pleas as he lay helpless on the ground, having lost his legs in a terrible accident just a few months prior...Special thanks to Susan Ludwig, Doug's sister, who has championed her brother's story for several years now.

On June 4th 2019, the body of 19 year old Cynthia Hoffman was found in a creek in Thunderbird Falls park located in Anchorage Alaska. Her feet had been duct taped together, and she had been shot in the back of the head. Cynthia had been reported missing by her father, Timothy Hoffman the day before, and he had told the Anchorage Police Department that his daughter had gone out with her best friend on June 2nd and not returned. He also told him that Cynthia had a learning disability and her brain only functioned at the level of a 12 year old. When you think of the kind of person who would do this to a young and trusting girl like Cynthia, you think of someone evil, a stranger most likely, since no one who knew Cynthia could have ever done this to her, but this wasn't a stranger who had done this, it was a person that Cynthia considered to be her best friend.

Introducing Crude's new podcast, lost anchorage, where Crude investigates the mechanisms of crime and violence in Anchorage, Alaska. Through research and interviews with professionals, law enforcement and those affected by crime, we hope to build a better understanding of whether or not Anchorage is, in fact, becoming more dangerous. In this episode, we look at crime from the perspective of a retired police officer. Aaron Roberts was an officer for the Anchorage Police Department for over 20 years. He patrolled downtown Anchorage, was a detective in robbery, assault, and metro with a focus in narcotics. At the time of his retirement, he was the team lead negotiator and worked closely with SWAT.
On September 14, 1991,in Anchorage, Alaska, a very pregnant Peggy Barnett along with her 9-year old daughter drove to the post office to deliver a package to an associate, George Kerr in Chugiak, fifteen miles outside of Anchorage. George's father David Kerr picked up the package three days later and brought it home. He and his wife Michelle were in the kitchen when David opened the package. The explosion was so intense, neighbours feared there had been an earthquake. David died instantly but Michelle survived. Michelle told U.S postal inspectors that Doug Gustafson was involved. It was no secret that Douglas Gustafson and his cohort, Raymond Cheely, despised George Kerr, had knowledge of explosives, and liked to blow things up. However they had perfect alibis. They were already in prison for murder.An investigative task force was formed led by U.S Postal Inspection Service, with assistance from the Anchorage Police Department and the US department of the Treasury, Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms (ATF) to solve this case. THE ALASKA MAIL-BOMB CONSPIRACY-Burl Barer
On March 15th, 1987 police in Anchorage, Alaska arrived at a horrific scene of carnage. In a modest downtown apartment, they found Nancy Newman's brutally beaten corpse sprawled across her bed. In other rooms were the bodies of her eight-year-old daughter, Melissa, and her three-year-old, Angie, whose throat was slit from ear to ear. Both Nancy and Melissa had been sexually assaulted. After an intense investigation, the police narrowed the principle suspect down to 23-year-old Kirby Anthoney a troubled drifter who had turned to his uncle, Nancy's husband John, for help and a place to stay. Little did John know that the nephew he took in was a murderous sociopath capable of slaughtering his beloved family. This true story, shocking and tragic, stunned Anchorage's residents and motivated the Major Crimes Unit of the Anchorage Police Department to do everything right in their investigation. Feeling the heat as the police built their case, Kirby bolted for the Canadian border. But the cops were on to him. First they hunted him down; then the cops and a tenacious prosecutor began their long, bitter battle to convict him up against an equally tough defense lawyer, as well as the egomaniacal defendant himself. This shocking tale reached its climax in a controversial trial where for the first time an FBI profiler was allowed to testify and the controversial, pre-DNA science of allotyping was presented to a jury. But justice would not be served until after the psychopathic Kirby Anthoney took the stand in his own defense - and showed the world the monster he truly was. MURDER IN THE FAMILY-Burl Barer
