Mit den Methoden des Profiling kommt er den Mördern auf die Spur.

Hollywood non è soltanto la capitale del cinema ma, per qualche strana ragione, anche il luogo che personaggi infidi e perversi hanno scelto come loro domicilio ideale. E poiché nessun'altra città è ambigua come questo scintillante quartiere di Los Angeles, la cronaca che coinvolge le stelle del grande schermo è un susseguirsi di morti e di eventi misteriosi.

From CSI to Forensic Files to the celebrated reputation of the FBI crime lab, forensic scientists have long been mythologized in American popular culture as infallible crime solvers.

Manchmal "überfällt" es jede*n von uns: das Böse. Warum habe ich böse Gedanken? Neige ich zur Gewalt? Wie gehe ich mit ihnen um, aus psychologischer, aber auch spiritueller (in weitester Sicht) Perspektive? Die Forensische Psychiatrie hat verschiedene Erklärungsansätze für böses Handeln. Warum der Mensch aber überhaupt zum Bösen befähigt ist, bedarf einer Vernetzung mit Antworten der Entwicklungspsychologie, der Hirnforschung, Epigenetik, bei der auch der spirituelle Blick auf das Menschsein nicht fehlen sollte.

In the late hours of July 22, 1991, Detective Patrick "Pat" Kennedy of the Milwaukee Police Department was asked to respond to a possible homicide. Little did he know that he would soon be delving into the dark mind of one of America's most notorious serial killers, the "Milwaukee Cannibal", Jeffrey Dahmer. Kennedy spent the next six weeks locked in an interrogation room with Dahmer. There, the killer described in lurid detail how he lured 17 young men to his apartment, where he strangled, sexually assaulted, dismembered, and in some cases, cannibalized his victims.

On a May morning in 1939, eighteen-year-old Velma Demerson and her lover were having breakfast when two police officers arrived to take her away. Her crime was loving a Chinese man, a “crime” that was compounded by her pregnancy and subsequent mixed-race child. Sentenced to a home for wayward girls, Demerson was then transferred (along with forty-six other girls) to Torontos Mercer Reformatory for Females. The girls were locked in their cells for twelve hours a day and required to work in the on-site laundry and factory.

Prison abolition and decarceration are increasingly debated, but it is often without taking into account the largest exodus of people from carceral facilities in the 20th century: the closure of disability institutions and psychiatric hospitals. Decarcerating Disability provides a much-needed corrective, combining a genealogy of deinstitutionalization with critiques of the current prison system.

Jails are the principal people-processing machines of the criminal justice system. Mostly they hold persons awaiting trial who cannot afford or have been denied bail. Although jail sentences max out at a year, some spend years awaiting trial in jail - especially in counties where courts are jammed with cases. City and county jails, detention centers, police lockups, and other temporary holding facilities are regularly overcrowded, poorly funded, and the buildings are often in disrepair.

"Fariña" és un relat interessant que narra, a través de testimonis directes, el narcotràfic a Galicia des del principi del contraban fins a l’actualitat. Del contraban de tabac es va passar al de cocaïna. La manca de legislació, impunitat, permissivitat, l’acceptació social i el desconeixement del gran problema que allà es gestava va ajudar a crear una organització que va ser la responsable de què el 80 % de la cocaïna arribés a Europa per les costes gallegues.
