Mary Ann Holder: Killer: An anthology of True Crime

By Albert Patterson

A collection of true crime tales headlined by the murders of Mary Ann Holder...The phenomenon of mass murderers is not a new one in the USA. Mass killings have become the norm instead of the exception. The frequency of shootings is predicted to increase with the spawning of killers trying to mimic the acts of earlier killers in an effort to gain publicity. According to Psychology Today, a mass murderer tries to right the injustice meted out to him or her with the murders. The murders and possible suicide of the killer are a culmination of resentful feelings that fester over a long term. The feelings may be about imagined or real rejections or humiliations they suffer. Killers are paranoid and feel they are wronged by the society. They hold chronic feelings of envy, grudge and social persecution. Even though the entire concept of mass murder is sickening, there are a few rare cases that garner more attention than the rest because of the nature of the killing. The mass murder by Mary Ann Holder is one such case that rocked the entire country with its appalling and gruesome violence. Mary Ann Holder shot herself after shooting and killing five people including her two sons, a niece, a nephew and the girlfriend of her son. The incident occurred on November 20, 2011 in the town of Pleasant Garden in Guilford County, North Carolina.
