Nobody undertsands murder like Elliot Leyton, advisor to Scotland Yard, the FBI and Interpol, and the bestselling author of “Hunting Humans.”
In “The Man Who Studies Murder,” on Disc 1, Leyton takes us through the underbelly of humanity – from death row in Nevada, to a Jack-the-Ripper tour of London, to an analysis of some of the 20th century’s most notorious serial killers. His goal: to find out why people kill and why some countries produce so many more killers than others.
Disc 2 contains bonus materials exclusively available on this DVD: interviews with mystery writer P.D. James and serial killer David Middleton (on death row in Nevada), as well as the interrogation of suspected (and later convicted) murderer Raymond Stewart by Sheriff Jim Lopey. Also featured is Dr. Ignatius Piazza, founder of Nevada’s gated and armed Front Sight community, plus a lecture by Leyton.

One of the greatest of Newfoundland’s glories is an oral culture which has produced a store of songs, riddles, rhymes, proverbs and curses as rich as any to be found in the English-speaking world. The speech of Newfoundland – laced with image and metaphor, full of ripples and runs, close to hand and eye and mouth – is in its many varieties a treasure-house of language. These poems seek to celebrate that vital store.
The “Dictionary of Newfoundland English”, with its choir of voices, has been both an important influence and, in the case of ten or so poems, a direct source. Most of the poems, however, have grown out of living speech filtered through memory and imagination.
