Forensic psychology plays an increasingly important role in criminal investigations and legal decision-making. The quantity and quality of empirical research studies and publications followed this trend to lend valuable scientific support and ensure the validity and reliability of methods and reasoning. However, there is still a need for conformity and standardization of sound protocols and approaches in the field that is based on improved knowledge and education to ensure fair and efficient criminal justice processes. This book is part of that effort on the journey to understand homicidal behavior and offenders better in order to prevent similar future crimes. Each chapter is a case study.
