Forensic Social

Lydia Benecke, Co-Autorin des Long- und Bestsellers "Aus der Dunkelkammer des Bösen" geht dem Ursprung des Bösen nach. Die Gefängnispsychologin, Fachfrau für besondere Vorlieben (Paraphilien) und erfahrene Ansprechpartnerin für Kriminalermittler nimmt uns mit auf einen Streifzug der Delikte, die uns alle in unserer Gegenwart so beschäftigen: U-Bahn-Schläger, rohe Gewalt, Amokläufer, Tierquälerei, Sadismus, Kannibalismus, Kindesmissbrauch und brutale Misshandlung. Was geht in so einem Täter nur vor? Und wie nah dran sind diese schrecklichen Taten an den ganz normalen Fantasien, die jeder von uns schon einmal hatte?

Nobody's Child traces the legal definition of "insanity" back to its inception in Victorian Britain nearly 200 years ago, from when our understanding of the human mind was in its infancy, to today, when questions of race, class, and ability so often determine who is legally "insane" and who is criminally guilty. Vinocour explains how "competency" and "insanity" are creatures of a legal system, not of psychiatric reality, and how, in criminal law, the insanity defense has too often been a luxury of the rich and white.

Warum ist der Mensch böse? Die Kriminalpsychologin und Bestsellerautorin Julia Shaw leuchtet die Abgründe unserer Psyche aus. Von Psychopathen wie Charles Manson oder Serienmördern wie Jack the Ripper geht eine unheimliche Faszination aus. Doch woher kommt sie? Und warum verdrängen wir so gern das alltäglichere Böse - von den eigenen Gewaltphantasien bis zum Machtmissbrauch im Büro? Die Kriminalpsychologin und Bestsellerautorin Julia Shaw taucht das Phänomen des Bösen in neues Licht. Shaw sucht und findet das Böse nicht nur in den Gehirnen von Massenmördern, sondern in jedem von uns.

The murder of Sarah Payne, Adam the Thames Torso, the London bombings, the Night Stalker and the poisoning of Alexander Litvinenko. The solving of all these cases can be linked to one man: Ray Fysh, a beer-swigging Charlton Athletic fan from Woolwich, a natural raconteur, and also one of the finest forensic detectives the country has ever seen. Ray began work for the Met Police in the 1970s when forensic investigation was seen as little more than a geeky side show, only in existence to confirm or eliminate evidence. But by the mid '90s Ray and his team had made huge progress in their field.

For nearly three decades, Dr Colin Manock was in charge of South Australia's forensic pathology services. In cases of unexpected or unexplained death, it was his job to determine when a person took their final breath, and whether they had died naturally - or not. But Manock did not have the necessary training for such a specialist role, and made serious errors in several major cases. The full extent of his wrongdoing, and the exact number of cases impacted by it, remain a mystery more than twenty-five years after he retired.

Diving deep into the unseen and unheard, Neely uses personal interviews, court records, media reports, and analytical data to understand how and why Black women are disproportionately more likely to die from homicide in comparison to their white counterpoints.

On November 23, 1849, in the heart of Boston, one of the city's richest men vanished. Dr. George Parkman, a Brahmin who owned much of Boston's West End, was last seen that afternoon visiting his alma mater, Harvard Medical School. Police scoured city tenements and the harbor - some leads put Parkman at sea or in Manhattan - but a Harvard janitor held a much darker suspicion: that their ruthless benefactor had never even left the Medical School building. His shocking discovery engulfed America in one of its most infamous trials.

Psychopathen? Die großen Massenmörder der Gegenwart fallen einem ein, die Amokläufer, die Gemeingefährlichen. Doch es sind nicht nur jene aus den Schlagzeilen, die unser Leben bedrohen. Es sind die Nachbarn, die aus fadenscheinigen Gründen einen Streit vom Gartenzaun brechen, die falschen Freunde, die unsere Energie und Kraft rauben, die Mobber im Büro. Die unsichtbaren Wunden, die sie uns zufügen, sind die wahre Gefahr. Es sind psychische, finanzielle oder emotionale Verletzungen - und die sind oft verheerend.

In 1978, 56-year-old Leoma Patterson left a bar in Clinton, Tennessee, and was never seen again. Six months later, a female skeleton was found on a wooded lakeshore in a neighboring county.

Some true crimes reveal themselves in bits and pieces over time. One such case is the Florida School for Boys, a.k.a. the Dozier School, a place where - rather than reforming the children in their care - school officials tortured, raped, and killed them. Opened in 1900, the school closed in 2011 after a Department of Justice investigation substantiated allegations of routine beatings and killings made by about 100 survivors. Thus far, forensic anthropologist Dr. Erin Kimmerle and her team from the University of South Florida have uncovered 55 sets of human remains.
