Description

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book.
Sample Book Insights:
#1 The FBI’s Investigative Support Unit attempts to develop a profile of the criminal mind, by analyzing the clues at a crime scene. Everything tells us something about the unknown subject who committed the crime, and we can make various conclusions when we see patterns start to emerge.
#2 When interviewing prison ers, we try to know as much about them as possible before the interview. This is to make sure they aren’t playing self-serving or self-amusing games with us.
#3 When interviewing killers, you should always try to figure out what made them kill certain victims. The old cliché about killers visiting the graves of their victims is often true, but not always for the reasons we originally thought.
#4 The changing nature of violent crime is another reason we need to understand it. Serial killers and rapists are the most difficult to catch, because they are motivated by more complex factors than the basic ones I’ve listed.

Insights from Chapter 1

#1

The FBI’s Investigative Support Unit attempts to develop a profile of the criminal mind, by analyzing the clues at a crime scene. Everything tells us something about the unknown subject who committed the crime, and we can make various conclusions when we see patterns start to emerge.

#2

When interviewing prison ers, we try to know as much about them as possible before the interview. This is to make sure they aren’t playing self-serving or self-amusing games with us.

#3

When interviewing killers, you should always try to figure out what made them kill certain victims. The old cliché about killers visiting the graves of their victims is often true, but not always for the reasons we originally thought.

#4

The changing nature of violent crime is another reason we need to understand it. Serial killers and rapists are the most difficult to catch, because they are motivated by more complex factors than the basic ones I’ve listed.

#5

The FBI’s Behavioral Science Unit, which is part of the National Center for the Analysis of Violent Crime, does not catch criminals. We help local police focus their investigations, then suggest some proactive techniques that might help draw a criminal out.

#6

The English novelist Wilkie Collins took up the profiling mantle in the 1860s, and it was Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s immortal creation, Sherlock Holmes, who brought out this form of criminal investigative analysis for all the world to see in the shadowy gaslit world of Victorian London.

#7

It is important to be able to step into the shoes of the unknown killer, as well as the victim. To know the offender, you must look at the crime.

#8

When we teach the elements of criminal-personality profiling and crime-scene analysis to FBI agents or law enforcement professionals, we try to get them to think of the entire story of the crime.
Insights from Chapter 2

#1

I was a B-/C+ student in school, but I was always popular with the teachers. I was interested in animals and kept dogs, cats, rabbits, and snakes. I was not an academic standout, but I was polite and easygoing.

#2

I was a pitcher and defensive tackle in high school, and I used my physicality to establish an air of confidence. I realized that it was up to the pitcher to be a field leader and set a winning tone.

#3

I was 18 when I got a job as a bouncer in a bar and club in Hempstead called the Gaslight East. I was so good at it that I was given the same position at the Surf Club in Long Beach. I was discreetly scrutinizing people three or four rows back, watching them as they prepared to be questioned, observing their body language, and noting if they looked nervous or tentative.

#4

I was always trying to figure out how to avoid conflict, but when that didn’t work, I tried to head it off before it got serious. I would watch people’s body language and behavior to predict whether they were about to start a fight, and then pounced on them before they knew what was happening.

#5

I had a reputation as a poor scholar, but my grades hit an all-time low when I concentrated on drinking. I had taken out two girls who had met in a home for unwed mothers, and I was drinking beer with them. Suddenly, I heard a police siren.

#6

I was arrested for stealing a car in Montana, and while the other two eastern guys got away, the one from Montana spilled his guts. I was slapped with another $40 fine for possessing alcohol, and probation.

#7

I was living at home with my parents when I met Sandy, who worked at the hotel as a cocktail waitress. We got a room together, and the next morning, her husband came and attacked me. I had to get out of there.

#8

I had signed up for the Air Force in 1966, because I didn’t want my ass shot off in support of a cause I didn’t understand. I was developing another sort of badass reputation during basic training: the Russian Bear.

#9

I ended up third out of the fifty in my flight. I was given a battery of tests and told I was well qualified for radio-intercept school, but radio-intercept school was full so they made me a clerk typist. I spent all day pecking out DD214s with two fingers.

#10

I was given a four-year scholarship in special education after I spent time with the children of a local association that helped handicapped children. I loved my work, but I had to give it up when the Air Force decided they didn’t need any more special education officers.

#11

I had finished my undergraduate degree and begun a master’s in industrial psychology. I was living on the GI Bill in a $7-a-week, windowless, basement apartment in Clovis, fighting the legions of three-inch waterbugs that went into attack formation every time I came in and switched on the lights.
Insights from Chapter 3

#1

I was offered a probationary appointment with the FBI in November 1970. I had to pass a law test, and my weight was 25 over the FBI's limit for my six-foot-two-inch height. But I was finally getting out of my depressing windowless basement room.
Insights from Chapter 4

#1

The FBI Academy on the Marine base in Quantico, Virginia, wasn’t fully built and operational yet, so we took our firearms and physical training there and the classroom work in the Old Post Office Building in Washington. We were indoctrinated to be on the lookout for Soviet agents, who would try to compromise us and get our secrets.

#2

The FBI trains its agents to only shoot to kill, and they believe that if they have made the decision to shoot, it is serious enough to take a life. They do not take any unnecessary risks.

#3

I was given a survival guide to Detroit upon graduation, which was among the most racially polarized cities in the country. I was told not to go anywhere in the city without heavy backup.
