FBI Arresting Serial Killers, From Computer Data to Danger. Forget what you see in movies and on TV about serial killers and how they're caught. In this podcast interview we discuss the true realities of investigating these criminals and the crucial role of the FBI. The interview is available on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and the show's website. A serial killer, or serial murderer, is someone who kills three or more people over a period, driven by psychological gratification. The FBI identifies motives like anger, thrill-seeking, financial gain, and attention-seeking. Serial killers often have specific victim profiles, such as demographic traits or gender. The FBI analyzes these patterns to track down the killers and understand their motives. Though distinct from mass murderers, spree killers, or contract killers, serial killers can share traits with these other types of criminals. FBI Arresting Serial Killers, From Computer Data to Danger. Listen to this for free in Apple Podcasts, Spotify, our website or most major podcast platforms. The term "serial killer" is often credited to former FBI special agent Robert Ressler, who used "serial homicide" in a 1974 lecture at the Police Staff College in Bramshill, England. Ann Rule, in her book Kiss Me, Kill Me, credits LAPD detective Pierce Brooks with coining the term and creating the Violent Criminal Apprehension Program (ViCAP) system in 1985. Criminologist Ernst Gennat first used the German term Serienmörder ('serial murderer') in 1930 to describe Peter Kürten. Peter Vronsky, in Serial Killers: The Method and Madness of Monsters (2004), notes that while Ressler popularized "serial homicide" in 1974, the terms "serial murder" and "serial murderer" appeared earlier in John Brophy's The Meaning of Murder (1966) and a 1967 Washington, D.C. newspaper review. FBI Arresting Serial Killers, From Computer Data to Danger. Our guest, Michael Harrigan, is a retired FBI agent, military veteran, and former police officer from Connecticut. He discusses the FBI's role in investigating serial killers and shares insights from his career, highlighting the differences between police work and FBI operations, from desk work to danger from Quantico to Washington, D.C. We discuss so much that people don't know about the role of the FBI in investigating and Arresting Serial Killers.

Survived the Widowmaker Heart Attack and A Near Death Accident.  He narrowly survived what's known as a widowmaker heart attack—a condition where a blockage obstructs the largest artery in the heart, hindering blood flow through the left anterior descending (LAD) artery, crucial for supplying half of the heart's muscle with blood. Immediate medical attention is crucial for any chance of survival, as highlighted by the Cleveland Clinic. You can listen to this in Apple Podcasts, our website, Spotify or most major podcast platforms. The gravity of seeking assistance promptly is highlighted by statistics from the American Heart Association, indicating that only a mere 12% of individuals experiencing a widowmaker heart attack outside of medical facilities manage to survive. Law enforcement officers, in particular, face escalated risk due to the demands of their profession, characterized by extended, physically demanding shifts and constant vigilance. Studies have indicated that police officers exhibit notably subpar cardiovascular health, likely exacerbated by the unpredictable and stressful nature of their work.

After retiring following a distinguished 41-year career in law enforcement, John Good now serves as an Adjunct Faculty member and author, drawing upon his extensive background to craft compelling narratives such as "Blood on the Badge." Set in 2016, this fictional work blends elements of crime fiction with insights from Good's real-life experiences, tracking decorated Navy Seal Matt O’Neil as he transitions into policing.
