The same week, two more deadly packages were intercepted en route to a federal courthouse and an office of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. \u003ci\u003eBlind Vengeance\u003c\/i\u003e is the riveting account of the frantic federal, state, and local investigations that ensued, eventually resulting in the arrest and conviction of Walter Leroy Moody Jr., a small-time con man who blamed society for his failures. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn-depth portraits of the victims and their killer show three men representative of the changing South: the privileged white man, Judge Robert Smith Vance of Birmingham, who saw the necessity of political changes; the black lawyer and city alderman, Robert Robinson of Savannah, who prevailed in a segregated society to become a respected professional figure; and the embittered lifelong criminal Roy Moody, who led a brooding, solitary life on the edges of society. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eRay Jenkins's research is based on new information from interviews, record searches, and unprecedented access to Moody's psychiatric profile. The result is a chilling exploration of the mind of a killer blinded by a desire for revenge.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ray Jenkins\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0820341010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780820341019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Georgia Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/28\/2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 352\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.96lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.90d","brand":"Ray Jenkins","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47965737648383,"sku":"9780820341019","price":38.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_9ce4cf9d-50d2-4280-b262-8555e1371fc9.jpg?v=1767284466","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/blind-vengeance-ray-jenkins-9780820341019","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
