Portrait featuring Micki Pistorius, Forensic psychologist, criminal profiler and author

What goes on in the mind of a serial killer? Were they born this way or made so? Are they capable of change? What does a criminal profiler do? Why do people fall in love with criminals? These are but a few questions we explored in this week’s podcast during this fascinating conversation with Micki Pistorius, South Africa’s first criminal profiler and the first woman in the profession. Micki is recognised as one of the world's foremost psychological profilers. Her best selling book Catch me a killer is based on her life and journey as a forensic psychologist. The true crime TV series of the same name was inspired from her autobiographical writing. I think it’s fair to say that this is one of the most interesting conversations I’ve ever had. I know it may sound like I say the same thing every week, but you won’t want to miss this one. 00:00 - Intro 00:59 - What goes on in the mind of a serial killer 02:51 - Lack of empathy 04:44 - What is a serial killer looking for? 06:09 - Can they change? 08:01 - Can the brain of a serial killer be rewired? 10:24 - What does a criminal profiler do? 13:27 - Testifying in court as a forensic psychologist 15:10 - Is profiling a skill? 17:12 - Falling in love with a criminal 18:48 - Emotional detachment 20:50 - Dealing with the emotional toll 22:03 - Why Mauritius? 24:20 - Being ready for crime 26:19 - Preparing our institutions 27:35 - Catch me a killer and writing 30:02 - Archeology 31:22 - The history of crime 32:25 - Favourite archeological site 34:32 - Loving France 37:34 - Teaching 38:14 - Profiling losing track 39:55 - Any regrets? 41:20 - Studying profiling 42:32 - Can AI replace a human profiler 44:34 - Solving cold cases
