    About this ebook

    When investigators were called to the secluded farm of attractive, fortyish Sheila LaBarre, they found the dismembered and incinerated remains of her young lover, a man with a child's I.Q. A series of young men had come and gone from the farm over the years, all seeming to vanish into thin air. Now LaBarre was on the run. Eventually she would be caught and would plead insanity. But was she indeed insane an "avenging angel sent to kill pedophiles," as she claimed or a vicious, calculating serial killer? Wicked Intentions explores the case in depth, from investigation to trial. As the Emmy award-winning television reporter who first broke the story of the Sheila LaBarre murders, Kevin Flynn is uniquely positioned to unveil the details of the bizarre chain of events that culminated in one of America's most sensational murder stories a spellbinding true story of obsession and vigilantism carried to a deadly extreme.

      I'd like to give a higher rating, but the content made me uncomfortable. Well written and researched. Amazing true story of terrible evil some people can possess and inflict on others.
    • 4/5
      Wicked Intentions is a true crime book about a woman known as Sheila LaBarre who pulled mentally underdeveloped men into her clutches through sexual and other means, only to abuse them horribly and eventually kill them and attempt to destroy their remains in what can only be described as totally grisly and sickening fashions. Mr. Flynn, as a reporter, has pulled together the bizarre pieces of this story as best they are known. I found this to be a very interesting read on a personal level, as the perpetrator was born and raised in the same county as I was, and several names and places mentioned in the book were familiar to me. A good book for anybody who likes true crime and delving into the minds of serial killers.
