Defending Donald Harvey by William Whalen

Over the course of eighteen years, Donald Harvey murdered at least fifty-nine people while working as a nursing assistant in Ohio and Kentucky hospitals. His crimes shocked the nation; even today, Harvey's name is invoked whenever those we trust in the medical system commit horrendous crimes. Now for the first time, Harvey's court-appointed defense attorney, William Whalen, and co-author Bruce Martin, reveal facts formerly protected by attorney-client privilege in Defending Donald Harvey. With Harvey's full cooperation, Whalen and Martin provide frightful insights into the mind of the cherub-faced killer. They detail his abused childhood; the confused search for identity that plunged him into Satanism and Nazism; the bizarre behavior reported by his coworkers but ignored by his employers; and of course his heartbreaking, brutal crimes. The book also includes an afterward by award-winning journalist Pat Minarcin, who broke the story that opened a Pandora's box of multiple killings.
Bruce E. Martin is a native of the Detroit Michigan area, and is a 1965 graduate of South Lake High. He holds a Master of Arts degree from Wayne State and a Bachelor's from the University of Michigan. A Vietnam Era veteran, he was enlisted four years in the U.S. Navy, and was stationed aboard the USS Davis, homeported in Newport, Rhode Island. He has since retired from the insurance industry, and resides in Northeast Florida with his wife and two of his three sons. Bruce's first published work was Crafted Web. Turk Nado is his second book. Lavender Grey, a second mystery, was published in early 2017.
