Psychology of Criminal Profiling9001
Have you ever wanted to know how understanding the criminal mind enables profiles to be developed and criminals caught! Then this is the course for you. Psychological profiling has become a major aid to police work and often forms a vital link in identifying the suspect.
This investigative discipline is based on the belief that a criminal does not just leave physical clues at the scene of the crime but that he also leaves psychological clues. By careful examination and consideration of these clues the skilled profiler endeavours to build up a picture of the likely offender.
A skilled profiler combines common sense, observation, background knowledge and geographical factors with a sound knowledge of psychology in his efforts to profile a killer or criminal.
