Excerpt / Summary
"if law enforcement had been able to monitor the hateful postings one MySpace user wrote about his wife on his blog, immediately followed by a post in which he talked about how much he loves her, authorities may have been alerted to erratic psychological behavior that eventually led to his murdering her"

Excerpt / Summary
"Criminal psychological profiles should be admitted as evidence in criminal trials. Courts already permit some aspects of profiles into evidence as a means to connect multiple crimes to a single offender. Admission of full profiles would accomplish the same goal through additional methods. As a result, their use at trial would not be an impermissible use of character evidence. In addition, criminal psychological profiles are both relevant and reliable in that they have a basis in established psychological and sociological principles, and the procedures involved in constructing such profiles are subject to peer review and contain control mechanisms. As a result, courts should welcome the benefits of criminal psychological profiles in criminal trials"
