...This PowerPoint Presentation is well-developed, and carefully synthesized an abundance of information. Personally, I found this PowerPoint to be an easy read with great slide themes and color backgrounds. This PowerPoint presentation was extremely informative, as it covered a variety of job qualifications upon gaining employment with the FBI. For example, the desired age for applicants is between 23 to 37 years of age; the FBI Academy is located in Quantico, Virginia; the minimum job requirement is a Bachelors Degree, and the yearly salary of $69,000 is very appealing. Probation Officer: Magna Gonzalez The Probation Officer PowerPoint is filled with excellent visual references. In my opinion, visual aides in a PowerPoint increases...

...Andrew Colburn and Steven Avery’s relationship go back more than two decades before to Avery’s arrest in 2005. Avery was convicted in 1985 for the assault and rape of Penny Beerntsen. He spent 18 years in prison before DNA evidence released him. Colburn and officer Lt. James Lenk were suspected of discovering evidence which suggested Avery's innocence in the Beerntsen case in the 1990s. A detective called the Manitowoc County Sheriff's Department to inform them that they had a suspect in custody named Gregory Allen, who claimed to have committed a sexual assault in Manitowoc County and that "someone else was in jail for it." Sergeant Andrew Colburn, who took the call, allegedly informed his superior officer, Lieutenant James Lenk. No report...

...Who Are Criminal Profilers? Rebecca Wiltshire Colby-Sawyer College Criminal profilers mix both the world of psychology with criminal justice. The field itself is fairly new and often time’s profilers don't always agree on methodology or even terminology. The term "profiling" is popular among the public because of media interoperations such as “The Silence of the Lambs” and “Criminal Minds”. However the FBI calls its form of profiling “criminal investigative analysis”; another profiler, a prominent forensic psychologist, calls his work “investigative psychology”; and another calls his “crime action profiling” only further proving the lack of agreement in terminology (8). Often a criminal profiler is thought to be a perceptive unknown or an unconventional intellectual who can solve crimes by trusting a combination of intuition and strong insight into the criminal mind (9). Criminal profiling is a method used by criminal investigators to develop profiles for murders, rapists, and other violent criminals who haven't been arrested yet (4). Profilers rely on perceptive trail and error to predict others’ behavior. They use the growing knowledge from psychiatry, psychology, criminology, and sociology, and utilize each in the field of criminal profiling. (3) Like in every job, criminal profilers have specific responsibilities that their job entails. It is a world of investigation and research impacted by inductive and deductive reasoning, crime-solving experience and knowledge of...

...Minds, lets us see what a serial killer might feel, as they portray there victims through a profilers mind. There is a team of 5 FBI’s, that lives and breathes, every move of a serial killer, that is about to kill again on the streets. Every one of the profile team has an ability to understand, what the next move might be to their UN sub (serial killer). As they visit a crime scene together, they sort out in their profile minds, why the killer has picked their victims and why they like to kill all of the same kinds. As the profilers from the FBI talks out and brainstorms the evidence together, they make you feel as you was thinking and feeling what the serial killer was at the time of the murder. One scene, made you feel that it could have been a sexual predator, because of some kind of sexual abuse they might have went through as a child, from their mother or father. The brutality of the murderer on his woman victims would kill and cut their eyes out before he would sexually abuse them. The profilers combined their thoughts together and came up with all the victims were in the age range from 30-40 and all had burnet hair, like his mother. The computer whiz profiler punches in all the criminals, with a sexual charge and that might have been an orphan because of sexual abuse as a child. It narrowed it down to about 5 UN subs to choose from, in the city the murders happened in. The profilers keep narrowing it down till they come up with a single name and address to go to. It is...

...are come from anecdotes (Snook, B., Haines, A., Taylor, P. J., & Bennell, C. 2007). And the influence of anecdotes and dramatic fictions are so powerful that people, even police find a single profile matched the fact, they will give credit to the criminal profiling since the inferences are usually ambiguous that cannot be proved to be wrong. Secondly, Brent Snook et. al.(2008) also suggests that, the repetition of the success of profiling also makes people to overestimate the validity of CP. The study of Brent Snook et. al.(2008) shows that 130 profiling articles have been reviewed, 52% of the articles advocate CP works and only 3% of the article suggest that it does not work. But it does mean that CP is nothing more than gimmick. The FBI profiler, John Douglas(1984), suggests that 46% of 192 instances need the help of CP and 77.2% of the profile focused the investigation suitably. However, it is obvious that the data came from 30 years ago and almost has been deprived of the information...

...I believe that criminal profiling is a combination of art and science. According to (Fulero & Wrightsman, 2009), criminal profiling has been described as an educated attempt to provide specific information about a certain type of suspect (Geberth, 1981). I feel that criminal profiling at times is based on science. My reasoning for this is that the profiler has to take in account for previous behavior of an offender based on continual actions by the perpetrator. Once a profiler has a psychological composite of the offender, then the profiler can start on the external composite which I feel is where the “art” of criminal profiling comes into play. The external details that I am referring to would be his or her race, where this person may reside or other meaningful details other than the offender’s mental state. MO is usually the methods an offender uses while committing his or her crimes. An example of an offender’s MO would be a car jacker silencing the alarm of a car before stealing it. Of course the point of this would be so that the alarm would not go off and not bringing attention to the car thief. According to our textbook, MO is refined to lower the risk of apprehension (Fulero & Wrightsman, 2009). In contrast, the signature reflects unique, personal aspects of the criminal act, often the reflection of a need to express violent fantasies (Fulero & Wrigtsman, 2009). For example, a rapist may consistently engage in the same specific order of sexual activities...

...Dolarhyde’s mindset when committing his horrific crimes by detailing the abuses the killer suffered as a child (Sexton). Harris takes the reader from the infant born with a cleft palate so disfiguring he was left to die through the cruelty of a childhood that included abandonment, a mean and mentally unstable grandmother, and taunts from his stepsiblings. In doing so, the author provides significance to some of the killer’s actions (Cowley). This research paper will examine the underlying psychopathology of serial killers that often stems from abuse in childhood, turning the human into the monster. Red Dragon begins with the FBI and the police on a desperate hunt for a serial killer whom police have nicknamed the Tooth Fairy because of bite marks left on victims. The public is duly alarmed as the target of the killer is entire families. Members of the FBI know that they must quickly apprehend the criminal not only due to the public outcry and fear but also because time is against them. The killer strikes on lunar moons and the authorities have only about three weeks before his next crime. Jack Crawford, the special agent assigned to the case, seeks the help of Will Graham, a gifted...

...Constitution, caused the death of 168 and wounded more than 500 others (Ottley, n.d). Nobody was surprised because it seemed like something a “white person” would do. Fast forward to October 2002, just over a year from the September 11th attacks. The nation is in a panic wondering when the next attack is going to take place. Then on October 2, 2002 about 5:20 p.m. a victimless shot rang out in the Washington Metropolitan Area this was followed by an hour later a man was shot in the parking lot at a grocery store. The next day four more people were shot in a 2 hour period. The “DC Sniper” spent the next 3 weeks terrorizing the citizens of the Washington DC area with random shootings. Profilers were brought in to assist local law enforcement in narrowing down the suspect. This time they got it wrong. The FBI behavioral scientist profile team said the suspect was a white male, working alone, in his 30’s. Turns out the DC sniper were a black male in his 40’s with his Jamaican step-son (Bothe, 2002). The nation was shocked because it seemed like a crime that a “white person” would do.

...John Douglas on the Mind of a Criminal Serial killers leave fibers, hairs, and weapons which are used as evidence to build a criminal’s profile. Criminal profiling was once considered a new controversial investigative technique. When officers hit a wall in their investigation FBI special agent John Douglas and Hazelwood are called to assist. They exam crime scenes and created profiles of the suspect, describing their habits and attempting to predict their next moves. Research prison interviews were conducted over a five-year period by John Douglas and one of his colleagues interviewing on more than thirty of the most notorious serial killers in the united states. Most of the questioning focused on family life, childhood and teenage years....

...Thank you for your time and this amazing opportunity! I am very interested in attending the Future Agents In Training program (FAIT) program this summer. Some of my personal goals are to work hard and help others every chance that I can. Another one of my personal goals is to better understand the mindsets of people and why humans do what they do. For, example, why they hurt people or steal or just like to see destruction. I also want to become a better, more inspirational leader, and to become more encouraging and humble in everyday life. A professional goal of mine is to one day work my way up to becoming a profiler for the Behavioral Analyst Unit in the FBI. And to help prevent crimes against children in the U.S. To do this job I would be willing to go anywhere in the country and learn any language. Another professional goal I have is to work hard doing a job I love, while helping to better the world at the same time. As well as to have a career that I am proud to have. One where I help and care for others, act unselfishly and put their needs above my own. I hope to achieve a lot from the FAIT program, including a better and more realistic view and understanding of crime and what agents really go through to catch and apprehend the unsubs. I also hope to achieve more tactical and strategic thinking from FAIT, as well as work with a very dedicated team of individuals that can all learn something from one another. I...
