All About Forensic Psychology: In The Mind of The Psychopath - 0 views

  •  
    Came across the transcript of a very interesting radio brodcast on psychopathy. The programme which aired back in March 2002 was introduced as follows:

    "In fiction there's been Hannibal Lecter and American Psycho. In real life, the legacy of notorious serial killer Ted Bundy still resonates. But how much can we believe of Hollywood's Tinseltown representations of psychopaths? What is it that defines psychopathic personality? Is it a distinct psychological state? And what hope for a cure?"

    A database of ink profiles is being put together at the Midwest Forensics Resource Center at Iowa State University which will allow scientists to combine mass spectrometry with a new sampling technique called Direct Analysis in Real Time (DART). This new process will help identify the chemical makeup of ink much more quickly and in much more detail than was previously possible and should prove to be of invaluable assistance to forensic scientists attempting to identify inks on fraudulent documents.
