When the handcuffs were snapped on, the killers learned they'd been duped, that "Mr. Big" was actually an undercover police officer. These killers ended up with lots of time to think about how tricky police can be. In this captivating book, we learn why Mr. Big is so good at getting killers to confess, and why he occasionally gets confessions from the innocent as well. We meet murderers such as, Michael Bridges, who strangled his girlfriend and buried her in another person's grave. Bridges remained free until he told Mr. Big where the body was, buried. We also meet people like Kyle Unger, who lied while confessing to Mr. Big and went to prison for a crime he did not commit. The "Mr. Big" Sting is essential reading for anyone interested in unorthodox approaches to justice, including their successes and failures. It sheds light on how homicide investigators might catch and punish the guilty, while avoiding convicting the innocent. Over a hundred Canadians "got away with murder" until an undercover police officer tricked them into confessing. Learn about the controversial "Mr. Big" police tactic that catches the guilty and occasionally traps the innocent.
