Analysis and Profiling of Serial Crimes

doi: 10.32577/mr.2022.2.5

Abstract

In this paper, we seek to answer the question of how to make the linking of crimes easier, more secure and more reliable. One solution may be the results of research on profiling and consistency. Another is to use and develop analytical and evaluative work based on research. The more reliable research results that law enforcement agencies and analytical units can rely on, the more effective they can be in identifying and investigating seriality. The most important research on crime linkage will be examined, and insights into the analytical possibilities of foreign and domestic research will be provided. We conclude by suggesting some possible research topics that could be used to improve domestic analytical evaluation and domestic modus operandi registration.
