In the middle of July, Steven Spingola, a retired Milwaukee Police Department lieutenant of detectives, authored the e-magazine article The Killer in Our Midst: the Case of Milwaukee’s North Side Strangler exclusively for Amazon.com.
The primary investigator for two of the homicides linked to the North Side Strangler serial killer, Spingola provided this profile of the yet identified perpetrator:
- An African-American male nearing age 50;
- A person who has committed acts of violence but has “fallen through the cracks” of the system;
- A suspect who kills outside his residence because he resides with a significant other;
- A man others would describe as a regular Joe; and,
- An individual employed at a menial job.
As the publisher of The Killer in Our Midst: the Case of Milwaukee’s North Side Strangler, Badger Wordsmith congratulates Steve Spingola for the accuracy of his work. On September 7, the Milwaukee Police Department annoucned the arrest of Walter E. Ellis, an African-American male, age 49, for crimes committed by the North Side Strangler.
“It’s great to know that the Milwaukee Police Department’s tremendous effort to identify a suspect in these horrific offenses has paid-off,” said Spingola. “It will be interesting to see how many other crimes are ultimately cleared.”
In recent weeks, Mr. Spingola’s e-magazine article climbed as high as #12 on Amazon.com’s Kindle formatted “crime and criminology” list.
