November 6, 2010 (San Diego’s East County) -- East County journalist/author Sue Russell, who recently scooped up a couple of San Diego Press Club awards for her series on “Wildfire Fighting” for www.miller-mccune.com, is celebrating the reissue of Lethal Intent, her true crime book about executed serial killer Aileen Wuornos, as a Pinnacle Books “True Crime Classic.”
Wuornos shot seven men to death in Florida in 1989 and 1990; she was executed in 2002 after ten years on Death Row. The book explores Wuornos’s mental health issues as well as the physical, emotional and substance abuse in her formative years. Now Russell asks “How far would you go for friendship?” as she writes about Wuornos’s key relationship on Dr Irene Levine’s “Friendship Doctor” blog on PsychologyToday.com.
Russell , an internationally syndicated award-winning journalist, is the the author of several non-fiction books including the top-selling true crime book, Lethal Intent. She has had over 1,500 articles published with her work appearing in major newspapers and magazines in the U.S. and around the world.

Charlize Theron in "Monster"
I recently watched the award-winning movie starring Charlize Teron, "Monster," and was struck by the brutal realism of the overall story. Charlize seemed to play the role better than the actual character.
