Criminal Behavior Assessment
Course Description: The course is designed to educate Pennsylvania Law Enforcement on behavioral analysis and crime assessment of violent crime. This course introduces the attendees to the use of the tools in crime assessment that allow for an analysis of probative evidence (physical, direct, and circumstantial), by its presence or absence, which meets a recognizable pattern of crime behavior. The first part of the course will examine the theoretical basis of crime assessment and the roles played by the Criminological and Psychological continuums. This will be followed by understanding the key roles that power and anger play in crime behavior. The course will further discuss applied methods for identifying the perpetrators of crime.
