American reference

I'm curious why the following book is listed as a reference:

  • Flowers, Barri R. (October 15, 1996). The Sex Slave Murders : The Horrifying True Story of America's First Husband-and-Wife Serial Killers (New York: St Martin's, 1996) ISBN 0312959893.

From the title and a descrip at Amazon, it seems to be about U.S. serial killers only. But I don't have the book. Does anybody know if it was used as a reference in this aticle. It seemed to be added here first, in a resorting of the references (the only one added in the sort). --Rob 03:47, 26 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

You are right, it shouldn't be there unless we are referencing the book elsewhere. In fact, ALL amazon URLs should go, to be replaced with ISBN numbers. --Yamla 03:52, 26 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I just removed it. I think, maybe, what happened, was somebody added the link to the Amazon page, for the purpose of adertising. Then, later, somebody else converted it into the proper ISBN format, assuming the book was relevant. --Rob 03:57, 26 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Here's a thought: WHY would a US publication of 1996 contain references to Bernardo and Homolka??? when the Bernardo trial only took place in 95?????Freiherrin (talk) 23:36, 7 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
That's not an issue. A book published in 1996 could reasonably describe events that took place in 1995. (I don't know anything about this particular book, though, so I am not commenting on what, if anything, it says about Homolka and Bernardo.) --Metropolitan90 (talk) 01:25, 3 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Update: During the Magnotta trial it was discovered that Karla is now living in Quebec with her spouse, and I assume her 3 kids.

Removed ===Plea bargain controversy===

Hi, I took the liberty to remove the following from the page:


Jamie Cameron, Professor of Law at [[Osgoode Hall Law School|Osgoode Hall]], noted that "at the time of the Homolka trial, three features of the case worried and concerned the public. Little was known about the respective roles Homolka and Bernardo played in their actions and the killing of their victims. By spring, 1993, it was clear that the Crown's case against Bernardo depended on Homolka's evidence. In simple terms, to secure a conviction against him, her story had to be believed. Yet on no view of the facts then known could she be exculpated; by casting her as a victim of his predatory behaviour, her responsibility for the crimes that were committed could be diminished and her credibility as a witness preserved."<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.justice.gc.ca/en/ps/rs/rep/2003/rr03vic-1/rr03vic-1.pdf |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110706181713/http://www.justice.gc.ca/en/ps/rs/rep/2003/rr03vic-1/rr03vic-1.pdf |dead-url=yes |archive-date=July 6, 2011 |title=Microsoft Word – Word_rr_English.doc |publisher=Justice.gc.ca |date=November 14, 2007 |accessdate=February 13, 2011 }}</ref>

The reason being that the link is dead and therefore none of this is in the citation. Until a citation is provided I think you will agree that this shouldn't be here given that the article is the biography of a living person.


If this was a mistake please feel free to undo the change. Thank you for your time. A Muddy Taco (talk) 13:25, 24 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
