About me
I am a Professor of Criminology. My work and research focuses on complex patterns of (criminal) behaviour in real-world contexts. I typically use timeline analyses, alongside other methods and techniques to analyse the temporal process of crimes (including interrogation analyses). I also assist with Missing Persons (MisPers), clandestine grave recovery, and Keatley's Winthropping techniques. I am always keen to apply my methods to novel cases, and welcome collaborations from academics and practitioners/Law Enforcement Organisations. I am a full Vidocq Society Member (VSM) and Chair of the Post-Presentation Working Group. I am also a member of the Rhode Island Cold Case Task Force, the PA Homicide Investigators Association (PHIA), Mid-Atlantic Cold Case Homicide Investigators Association (MACCHIA), and the International Homicide Investigators Association (IHIA), alongside several other national and international cold case initiatives and task forces.
I have a background in Forensic Psychology. I am also Director of an international research network: Researchers in Behaviour Sequence Analysis (ReBSA) and regularly assist with Law Enforcement Organisations around the world on current and cold cases – specifically in relation to major crimes/ cold cases/ homicide cases.
