Raw Deal: The Untold Story of NYPD's 'Cannibal Cop'

"When, if ever, does a thought cross the line and become a
crime?"

Raw Deal is the untold story of former New York City police officer
Gil Valle, who in 2012 became known throughout the world as "The
Cannibal Cop." It is the controversial saga of a man who was
imprisoned for "thought crimes", and a look into a world of dark
sexuality and violence that most listeners don't know exists,
except maybe in their nightmares.

After Valle's arrest, media coverage exploded in a frenzy of lurid
tabloid headlines and stories about the cop charged with planning
to kidnap, torture, rape...and eat...women, including his own wife.
But here's the fascinating part: There was no such plan in reality.
Valle was simply engaging in his own private fantasies, albeit
fantasies that are abhorrent and grotesque, and for that he was
thrown into prison. Valle faced life in prison for his charges, and
served 21 months for nothing more than having online chats about
his fantasies. He was finally exonerated of all charges.

Raw Deal raises the question: When does thought become a crime? It
will challenge the listener's beliefs about free speech, the right
to privacy, and government's role in watching over us.

Warning: This audiobook contains graphic fantasy material of a
sexual and violent nature. It is intended for mature
