LYDIA BENECKE - Criminal Psychology of Serial Murder (from 16)

Description

Criminal Psychology of Serial Murder
Most people cannot and do not want to imagine killing another person. Therefore, it seems all the more incomprehensible why a small group of people repeatedly decide to do exactly that to satisfy their own needs. For decades, research has been conducted to understand which psychological factors distinguish people who commit serial murders from others. What motives lie behind their actions? What can help prevent such acts? Although societal and media interest in serial murders has been high for decades, few know that serial murders have been declining internationally for many years. There are scientifically based explanations for this as well.
Criminal psychologist Lydia Benecke presents the current state of scientific knowledge on the topic of serial murder with exciting case examples. About Lydia Benecke:
