The
psicogeográfico profile in the investigation of crimes
in series
An excessive confidence in modus operandi of an assassin
in series can take to us to think that this one will
always act of the same form, forgetting that it can
learn in each crime and vary his dynamics. In the same
way, to wait for of all its murders a “characteristic
company/signature” supposes to discard unexpected and
the action of other circumstances that can it have
destroyed. Maurice Godwin, being based on concepts used
in geographic sciences, has created a computer science
program called Predator able to predict the place where
an assassin lives in series and the place where he will
kill the next time, and even sometimes the place where
he has left the corpse of a victim. The dredge explains
with detail the technique of the psicogeográfico profile
and it illustrates it with numerous and horrifying cases
in which not always the police has acted with the had
diligence. Many assassins walk loose. Maurice Godwin
proposes a scientific form to catch them. (Click on

In Search of Derrick Todd Lee: The Internet Social Movement that
Made a Difference
By Stan Weeber PhD |
|
 This book is about criminologist
Maurice Godwin's Internet social movement
that sprang to life during the Baton Rouge
serial murder case. The movement was a
response to the Task Force failing to find
serial killer Derrick Todd Lee, as citizens
in Baton Rouge, South Louisiana, and South
Mississippi no longer wished to wait in
fear. This is a story of citizen empowerment
in a time of crisis. Both scholars and
ordinary citizens will be inspired by the
way the people in Baton Rouge helped
themselves by putting pressure on
investigators for improved results. Godwin's
innovative Internet movement, involving
geographic mapping and online discussions
with Baton Rouge citizens, developed into a
hub of information to expedite the finding
and arrest of Lee. The author sociologically
describes and analyzes the key players, the
major controversies, and the internal
dynamics of the movement that led to the
arrest of the serial killer on May 27, 2003. |
