Welcome to Litsy!

The true story of two mass-casualty incidents that occurred within days of each other at a US Air Force base. Using the words of the people who experienced the tragedies, the book provides in-depth look at the before, during and after of a preventable active-shooter incident and an avoidable fatal plane crash. The base psychiatrist knew the airman was dangerous. “This is the kind of patient who … one day … he’s going to come back and kill you.” Aircrews knew the rogue pilot was dangerous. “We predicted the worst air-show disaster in history when we found out that he was gonna fly.” Written by Andy Brown, the man who ended the killing spree, the result of more than seven years of research. Brown "masterfully weaves" the two stories together in a powerful narrative. He also reveals the preparations he made that enabled him to end a pistol-versus-rifle gunfight with a 70 yard shot from his handgun. Part true crime, part law-enforcement biography memoir and part military history. Warnings Unheeded is presented in an objective style that shows what can happen when authorities become complacent, when the precursors of violence are ignored and the lessons from history are forgotten.
