Welcome all you wiretappers back here in the studio of Gangland Wire.

I have a really interesting, a little bit different show.

You know, we usually deal with organized crime.

Well, this is this isn't your mafia style organized crime, but it's a crime.

We're talking to talk about a crime or series of crimes that I know I worked on myself as part of a surveillance team and doing some

investigation of.

And it's the serial killings of at risk vulnerable women and primarily street prostitutes

or other women who are drug addicts and on the streets a lot.

And they're always at risk that put themselves in bad situations

and there's bad people out there that that will victimize them and get away with it because

they're kind of like in society a little bit like throwaway people and so when I learned about

Jody's book, Hooker Avenue, there it is, folks, and you can see, you see her.

Jody, hey, how you doing? Good to have you here. Hey, Gary, how are you? Thanks for having me on the show.

I always feel funny talking about somebody or talking about what I'm doing, and you just sit there,

you know, the guest, you're just sitting there watching. But anyhow, so it's great to have you here. What I want to know about, of course, is we talked before is about how you learned about the police procedures.

And when you wrote that book, because I know you tried to get it accurate.

I've read enough of that to know that you try real hard to get the police procedures accurate.

And the community reaction to these kinds of series of crimes.

And it's always interesting, I think. And so I just

like to have interesting shows about crime and not always the mafia. So, Joni, tell us a little bit about

how you got to write Hooker Avenue. Where did you come from? I look at your career and it's, it's,

you're a Renaissance woman. So tell us about that.
