From Custody to Creativity — My Journey from Crime to Crafting Stories
There was a time in my early life when shadows stretched long and the thrill of rebellion clouded my better judgment. My journey began in a world most would shy away from—a life of crime that was as dangerous as it was short-lived. It wasn’t about the thrill, not really. It was about survival. But survival often demands a cost, and sooner or later, that bill arrives.

The Danger of Parasocial Investigators:
Let’s clear something up: There’s a big difference between watching crime shows and knowing how to analyze a crime scene. And just because someone hits "record" on a phone and speaks confidently to the online audience does not mean they’ve earned the right to dissect someone’s life.

The Coal Pile Corpse
Few examples in the history of unexplained deaths captivate the public's attention as Zigmund Adamski's. What started out as a 56-year-old Polish miner's usual trip to the store in June 1980 turned into a terrifying mystery that has perplexed detectives, sparked wild ideas, and still fascinates experts today. Adamski was discovered five days after his disappearance, mysteriously sitting atop a 10-foot-tall coal pile in Todmorden, West Yorkshire. Although his death was ruled a heart attack, the coroner reached a "open verdict," calling it "quite the most mysterious death I have investigated in 12 years as a coroner" due to the circumstances surrounding it. This is Zigmund Adamski's story, which is intertwined with bizarre wounds, unexplained locales, and a persistent connection to the growing UFO phenomenon in the Pennine region.
