My new book, Running Circles Around the Globe: 20 Years of the Turner Report available now


My new book, Running Circles Around the Globe: 20 Years of the Turner Report, is available now on Amazon and should be in Joplin by July 10.

Nearly half of Running Circles is a new investigative report that I have been working on for several months that reveals new evidence concerning the December 2017 death of 3-year-old Jayda Kyle of Carl Junction.

A couple of timely chapters are devoted to two people who are attempting political comebacks in August- former Joplin Tornado Mayor Mike Woolston and former Joplin R-8 Board of Education member Mike Landis.








Other chapters are devoted to the following, some of it dating back to the early years of my blog:

-The suicide of Webb City High School student and Afghan refugee Rezwan Kohistani
-The nearly forgotten scandals of Judge Dean Dankelson
-A chapter on former Joplin R-8 Superintendent C. J. Huff, which focuses on the 6 1/2 mile long ribbon, the wrong-colored bleachers and the story of the failed inspection of the new high school







-The Wallace Bajjali story
-The Joplin Blasters
-From 2005: My "feud' with Tiffany Alaniz
-The controversy surrounding the Neosho teacher and his pride flag
-The infamous punch that floored me in 2017
-And a few of my stories.

The book is available in paperback and e-book editions.
