Interview With Serial Killer Douglas Feldman

The video above is the first interview I have studied where the UNSUB has already been convicted and served the death penalty. One thing I have noticed and was stated in the video is that their body language is a lot more loose and they speak a bit more freely. In a separate article, Special Agent John E. Douglass describes the way ENSUB's find joy out of withholding information from authorities. In this video, Douglas Feldman has already been relinquished of that and has no "ammunition" left which makes the entire interview overall more honest and open.

Blog 17: Answer 3

Essential Question:
What is most vital for a profiler to perform an accurate analysis?
Answer #3
The interrogative suggestions piece of the profile can explain many things besides the obvious such as what kind of character the ENSUB is assumed to have which is the ultimate and final revelation.

3 details to support the answer

1. People with disorders require different circumstances depending on their specific situation just the way an ENSUB would.
2. The incrimination is the point of the entire investigation and profile so the interrogation technique is crucial.
3. Since the interrogation suggestions is the culminating component, the profiler has all of the information already and gives utmost effort to make all the hard work payoff.

Concluding Sentence
The entire purpose of creating a profile is the capture said ENSUB so the interrogation is going to be held in a high regard because it is the final phase. For that reason I strongly think that the final hurrah is vitally important.
