In a recent internet chat with some Forensic Consultants, the question/subject of "sex offender" or "rapist" profiling came up.
I challenged the Forensic Consultants group to send me handwriting samples of known rapists and handwriting samples of non-rapists. I did receive 5 samples from a Senior Lecturer in Criminal Profiling, NOLC, UK.
As an analyst, the ability to distinguish personality traits as seen in a handwriting sample, can be and should be considered as a tool in helping to solve crimes. The following list was given by the Forensic Consultants for rapist profiling.
Disorganized Asocial Offender
Organized Nonsocial Offender
|
Gang Rapes
To my knowledge, there is no "handwriting" data profile (rapist specific)--YET. The standard of evidence based tests using non-sex offenders with known sex offenders (same age, race, demographics, standard writing sample) in a blind study has not been completed.
Using the above profile list, what traits (stroke formations) would a handwriting analyst look for if called on for a rapist profile consultation?
Send your trait list to me: president@chaiuniversal.org
In the meantime, I will get permission to share the
5 samples I received. |
