Summary

When a shocking crime occurs, people ask “WHY?” Was it about power, ego, or revenge? On KILLER PSYCHE, retired FBI criminal profiler Candice DeLong draws on her decades of experience to reveal why these murderers and criminals committed these acts. She will reveal fascinating new details about what drove these people, including cases she worked on first-hand. Candice has been called the FBI’s “real-life Clarice Starling,” and she will share specific psychological methods and profiling techniques that experts use to understand the deepest part of the most complex, fascinating, and twisted minds, from the Unabomber to Dr. Death to El Chapo.

0:00.0	Hey everyone, there's a new True Crime podcast from Wondry that I just started listening to
0:05.2	that I think you should check out. It's called Killer Psychie. If you're a true crime fan like me,
0:10.8	then you know there's lots of true crime stories out there. We watch them on TV,
0:16.0	read them in the news, and of course we listen to them on podcasts. In the aftermath of these stories,
