pickThis one was a fun picture to create but go with me here. The favorite criminal profiler I follow is Pat Brown. Pat Brown doesn‘t have ever in synch opinions with John Douglas so here they are in fisticuffs in front of the FBI building.
This does appear to be a criminal profiler thing. 🤷🏼♀️
The book here is older case reviews. Pat used to teach Profiling at Excelsior which would interesting to follow along, I await her reading suggestions.
pickThis is a memoir of the author‘s time profiling serial killers and violent criminals. It‘s informative but far from prefect. The author spends a bit too much time boasting of his accomplishments. I think it helps to keep in mind this was published in 1993. I have a high tolerance for tragedy, but I have to admit I was a bit disturbed at times with the constant barrage of violent stories told in the author‘s direct and somewhat dispassionate style!
pick⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ FBI Profiler John Douglas takes us inside the Bureau‘s elite serial crime unit. For years, he meticulously studied serial criminals with the intent to understand motive, MO, signature, and other dark behaviors. “To understand the ‘artist,‘ you must study his ‘art.‘” Perhaps a morbid way to state it, but yeah. Douglas goes into immense detail of several crimes and criminals. A brilliant dude. Maybe one day I‘ll watch the Netflix series.
pickA psychological look at some famous serial killers. A look at patterns, motivation and why they kept killing. It does get a bit wordy at times so took me a while to get through it. 3*
pickI love watching shows like 20/20, 48 Hours and Dateline, and this book fell right along with that. Douglas and Olshaker write about the beginning of the Behavioral Unit at the FBI. They look at the behind the scenes.
The first part of the book dealt with Douglas' early life and time at the FBI. I would have preferred they looked at more cases. Some of the cases they explored I knew about, but there were quite a few I didn't. Overall, ⬇️
