Deadline #2, HW #6

http://www.mtholyoke.edu/~mlyount/MySites/ForensicPsychology/CriminalProfiling.html

I think this website is going to help a lot due to the fact it has the definition of Criminal Profiling, why it works and how it works, the methods and so much more. It also includes links to other sites that give a more in depth explanation of the methods and who created them. I'll probably use this often as a reference for any information I need to check on quickly.

http://www.corpus-delicti.com/prof_archives_media.html

This site lists Criminal profilers in the media. It has articles of investigations profilers have been involved in, and what they did as far as helping with a case. It also gives an example of when Criminal Profilers were first introduced to the public via the movie Silence of the Lambs in 1991. The media articles will help to give evidence to points I make throughout my paper.

It's beautiful when you find a site that can give you so much of the basic information you have to scrape other places to get. The danger, though, is that you might be tempted to use to much of that sources information, which gives you more of a one-sided view and doesn't provoke the thought that you get from considering information from multiple sources.
