In addition, the history of the mystery genre; reasons people resort to murder; and a discussion of five main categories of murderers: the hardened killer; the terrible triad of mass murderer, serial killer, spree killer; psychotic killers; and psychopathic killers.
(2) The O. J. Simpson Case. In addition, a discussion of the accuracy of fingerprint identification; the accuracy of DNA analysis; what is DNA and the human genome all about?; has DNA analysis changed people’s opinion about the death penalty?; and an in-depth look at the nature of forensic science.
