"Pep, The Cat-Murdering Dog" was a black Labrador Retriever admitted to Eastern State Penitentiary on August 12, 1924. Prison folklore tells us that Pennsylvania Governor Gifford Pinchot used his executive powers to sentence Pep to Life Without Parole for killing his wife's cherished cat. Prison records support this story: Pep's inmate number (C-2559) is skipped in prison intake logs and inmate records.

Victorian morality and Women in the Victorian era
Beginning in the late 1840s, major news organizations, clergymen and single women became increasingly concerned about prostitution, which came to be known as "The Great Social Evil." Although estimates of the number of prostitutes in London by the 1850s vary widely (in his landmark study, Prostitution, William Acton reported that the police estimated there were 8,600 in London alone in 1857), it is enough to say that the number of women working the streets became increasingly difficult to ignore. When the United Kingdom Census 1851socio-economic one. The 1851 census showed that the population of Great Britain was roughly 18 million; this meant that roughly 750,000 women would remain unmarried simply because there were not enough men. These women came to be referred to as "superfluous women" or "redundant women," and many essays were published discussing what, precisely, ought to be done with them.

There are more "axles to grind."  A well concealed thriving criminal element with connections to the DMV can produce or alter paperwork that is very convincing.

METACRITIC Breaking Bad: Season 5
Chicago Sun-Times ~ People Weekly ~ Entertainment Weekly ~ Salon ~ Boston Herald et al


The Bottom Line:  Fresh from his season four "victory" over Gus Fring, Walter White is now in charge. And he's loving it. Jesse is back, Mike is sort of back, wife Skyler's early fears may be masking what she really feels inside and series creator Vince Gilligan appears to have done it again. It's not a matter of wondering if Breaking Bad will be great, but where in the pantheon it will ultimately reside.  THE HOLLYWOOD REPORTER

Bad Girl: convict and escapee extraordinaire ~ 1786

“I was 17 from a fishin’ family, a family that was starving.  I was always a bit wild.  I should have listened to my father.  I should have listened to my mother.  But I didn’t.”
Mary Bryant, convict, was baptized on 1 May 1765 at Fowey, Cornwall, England, the daughter of a mariner named Broad, whose family was 'eminent for sheep stealing'. On 20 May 1786 at the Exeter Assizes she, referred to as Mary Braund, was charged with assault and robbery, convicted and sentenced to death. Her sentence was commuted to transportation for seven years, and she was taken from Exeter jail to the hulk Dunkirk off Plymouth, where she remained until transhipped to the transport Charlotte in the First Fleet for Botany Bay.

This original bad girl, Mary, turned her life around like no other.  In 2005 a miniseries from Oz, The Incredible Journey of Mary Bryant,  brought to life an amazing story as well the wit and endurance of one of histories most fascinating heroines and media sensations.  

After a voyage of sixty-six days, Mary, her children and the eight men reached Kupang, in West Timor on the island of Timor, a journey of 5,000 kilometres (appx 3000 miles)   . This extraordinary voyage became part of seafaring history, and has often been compared with William Bligh's similar epic journey in an open boat of only two years earlier, after the mutiny on the Bounty. Bligh's voyage had also ended in Timor. The trip involved navigating the then uncharted Great Barrier Reef and the Torres Straits.

V i d e o:  The Incredible Journey of Will & Mary Bryant, Song: When You Believe by Whitney Houston and Mariah Carey

Season 1 Episode 1 Part 1
 It's been a while since we've had a big miniseries focusing on Australia's colonial times and the remarkable story of Mary Bryant - convict and escapee extraordinaire - is perfect TV fodder. Another plus is having the stunning young English actress Romola Garai in the title role, and a support cast that includes Sam Neill and Garry McDonald.

June 20, 2011  The Federal Bureau of Investigation is looking to elderly women to help them locate one of the country’s most wanted criminals.  The agency announced yesterday that new pleas for information in its search for 81-year-old James “Whitey” Bulger will focus on his longtime girlfriend Catherine Greig.
Apprehended on June 22, 2011 - After 16 years on the run from law enforcement, Boston mob boss James "Whitey" Bulger, was arrested in Santa Monica with his longtime companion, Catherine Greig, 60, who fled Massachusetts with the gangster in late 1994.

Jun 12, 2012 Judge indicates that longtime girlfriend of Boston mobster Bulger will get longer prison term.  Judge mulls long sentence for Mass mobster's lover.

Catherine Greig called ‘cold-hearted criminal’ by Timothy Connors, whose father was murdered 37 years ago today.  “You are as much a criminal as Whitey, and you ought to be handled as such,’’ Connors said to Greig at her sentencing hearing in US District Court. “You are a cold-hearted criminal.”
Catherine Greig was sentenced to eight years in prison, and was admonished by the judge for her loyalty and support of wanted mobster James 'Whitey' Bulger. Catherine Greig posed as Bulger's wife, picked up his medicine, and helped him while he evaded the FBI for 16 years.

"Cocaine Cowboys"The film explores the rise of cocaine and resulting crime epidemic that swept the American city of Miami, Florida in the 1970s and 1980s. The producers of Cocaine Cowboys use interviews with law enforcement, journalists, lawyers, former drug smugglers and gang members to provide a first hand perspective of the Miami drug war.
Also documented in the film is
the gangland violence associated with the trade. The interviewees in the film argue that Griselda Blanco, an infamous crime family matriarch, played a major role in the history of the drug trade in Miami and other cities across America. It was the lawless and corrupt atmosphere, primarily from Blanco's operations, that led to the gangsters' being dubbed the "Cocaine Cowboys".
