#10 The Assassination of Theo van Gogh





The assassination of Theo van Gogh was a shock to the world and to the very non-engaged, neutral Holland. The film director and TV presenter was born in the Hague. He was the great-grandson of Theo van Gogh – the brother of Vincent van Gogh.


He didn't graduate the University of Amsterdam, his passion to make and discover the film industry predominated his life. Even though he always tried to be politically non-engaged, he wrote a book "Allah weet het better"/ "Allah knows better" – which appeared shortly after the tragedy of the Twin Towers at 11 of September 2001. The publication and outspoken point of view led to a disaster, his death. The book strongly criticized the Islam and the fundamental movements.



Theo van Gogh was assassinated in Amsterdam, while cycling to work at November 4th, 2004. The assassin, Mohammed Bouyeri, was a 26-year-old Dutch-Moroccan citizen, apprehended by police after a chase, while he tried to run off he was shot in the leg. Van Gogh was shot several times, the wounds were severe, all of them lethal. While struggling for life van Gogh asked for mercy, in contrary, the assassin, cut his throat, he also wanted to decapitate him, he put the knife deep into his chest by which he broke the spinal cord asunder. The smaller knife was used as a 'paper clip' to which the message was enclosed.

#4 A Peculiar Character of Sir Edmund Berry Godfrey

His mysterious death was supposed to be silent and left behind, in contrary, it caused mayhem and upheavals shortly after it occurred. His noble background opened him the gate to British Parliament, He was very-well educated, he attended to Westminster School, graduated Christ Church, Oxford. In September 1666 he received a knighthood. Despite of being Protestant he had a significant number of his Catholic counterparts, including the Duke of York, the future king James II. Unfortunately not every alley he made was a good one, he was pronounced a member of so-called ‘Peyton Gang’ which was closely associated with Green Ribbon Club. The Club’s members wanted to force the king Charles II to turn to Catholicism and abandon Protestantism. Efforts were futile. The plot was simple, meant to shake off the kingdom and set up the republic, what could be simpler?  - Failure, perhaps. Richard Cromwell unsuccessfully prepared the details. He was crushed by the gove...

Deaths from Firearms

The correct handling of a death from gunshot wounds begins at the scene. Here valuable evidence on the body can be lost or altered and bogus evidence may be inadvertently introduced through mishandling of the body. Before a body is touched, its position and appearance should be documented photographically and diagrammatically. The most important rule at the scene is to handle the body as little as possible so as not to dislodge trace evidence that may be clinging to garments or to the body surface. Hands should never be pried open, and fingerprints should never be taken at the scene. Fingerprint ink can either mimic or obscure powder soot as well as introducing contaminating materials that may render subsequent examination of the hands for primer residues of questionable validity. Manipulation of the hands is of even greater potential danger if it is done by a police officer who, theoretically, can transfer primer residues from his hands to those of the deceased....
