Pure Murder (Pinnacle True Crime) by
Corey Mitchell
An Excellent True Crime Book
Two Innocent Teens The crime was unspeakable. On a summer night in
Houston, two bright, beautiful, success-bound teenage girls crossed paths
with a group of young men fueled with alcohol and rage. Four days later,
when searchers finally found Jennifer Ertman and Elizabeth Pena, their
bodies were unrecognizable... An Orgy Of Violence At first, the
teenage boys grabbed Elizabeth, while Jennifer escaped. But Elizabeths
desperate cries brought Jennifer back to help her best friend. Both girls
were subjected to sexual assaults of every conceivable kind...and long,
painful, drawn-out deaths... No Mercy For days afterward, the killers
bragged openly about their crime. By the time prosecutors got the case,
convictions for double murder looked like a slam dunk. But the families of
the victims were in for a horrible surprise. In this terrifying case, justice
would be a torturous journey... Includes 16 Pages Of Shocking Photos

I would have given this book 10 stars if possible. This book is horrifying,
fascinating and sad to say the least. You really get a well written
description of the cold-blooded brutality, and lack of conscience of these
teen rapists/murderers. You also feel the pain, anguish and anger of the
parents who lost their daughters. A few of the photos of the crime scene
are pretty disturbing. Corey Mitchell did an excellent job with this book.
The story pulls you in and it is hard to put the book down although parts of
it are very graphic (the actual crimes described in detail as they were
committed). It is as if you are actually seeing this played out the way it
happened. As the parent of two teens (one a daughter) I can feel for both
the Pena and Ertman families. I could not even begin to imagine the horror
their daughters went through and the anguish of the families in learning
their fates. The two girls and the six killers each have a chapter profiling
their lives and how they grew up. I found the chapter on Peter Cantu
particularly disturbing. Even at a very young age he was a juvenile
delinquent who got his thrills theatening and bullying others and at times
got into physical confrontations with teachers, security guards and even
police offers. One of Cantus middle school teachers had a physical
confrontation with him and she became so frightened of him that she
transferred to another school. Cantu went on to commit more serious
infractions later on including the murder of a 27-year-old woman - also
described in the book. This guy is truly a monster and that is an
understatement.
In summary this is an excellent book for those interested in true crime
stories. However, it is not for the faint of heart.
