Happy Easter 2023 from The Pen Hustle

Hey Hustlers!

As we celebrate I wanted to stop by and say Happy Easter to you and your families.

Thank you so much for stopping by and reading my blog.

I started this blog as a place that I could share my opinions about cases and current events in the true crime world. At its launch, the site was widely successful averaging over 1,000 hits per day. Over the years, life got in the way and we hit a few rough patches but as of late we are back up to 500-700 visits per day from countries all over the world.

I am truly humbled. So I thank you, I hope that you will continue to check in and join the discussion with me. Next time bring a friend! Everyone is welcomed and wanted here.

Much love to you and again thank you,

Love Bee

WATCH: “Drain the Oceans: Rise of the Mob” Trailer

Author Christian Cipollini is one of my very favorite crime historians. I watch his shows, I read his books — I love his fashions! The guy has great style.

“Cip” (as I so affectionately call him) has participated in numerous television projects lending his expertise on organized crime and the inner workings of the Italian mafia.

His newest project, “Drain the Oceans: Rise of the Mob” takes a deep dive into mob history — literally.

I would spoil it and tell you what it’s all about but luckily there is a trailer so you can see for yourself.

If you’re like me and love organized crime based documentaries, make sure to set your DVR for this one. The episode will premiere on both National Geographic and Hulu networks.

Check for local listings.

Reformed drug trafficker turned best selling author, Rick “Freeway Ricky” Ross is back with some new gems on how to invest in yourself.

I don’t know about you but I could use this message right about now. I’m sure there is plenty of knowledge in this book as Freeway Rick collected millions upon millions during his drug dealing heyday.

Since his release from federal prison, he has become a motivational speaker, businessman and author traveling all over the globe sharing his life story to encourage others.

To me, that’s a definitely a success story.

If you are looking for a little motivation and would like to preorder a copy of the book, head over to FreewayRickyRoss.com

They say criminals make the best teachers once they go legit. I tend to agree.

For 22 bucks, I’m willing to find out.

Check back for the book review.
