...Validity, Benefits and Liabilities of Criminal Profiling To have knowledge of criminal profiling it is necessary to know that it is an analysis of the information that has been gathered and researched relating to a specific crime and has been validated prior to submission. Criminal profiling consist what happened according to eyewitnesses of the crime, physical evidence or a valid confession from a suspect (Bartol & Bartol, 2012). Criminal profiling has proven to be a valuable tool involving criminal investigations and is used by forensic psychologists. There are factors that become involved when compiling a profile such as liabilities and limitations related to personality traits that are identifiable, particular behavior exhibited, and characteristics specific to the offender and the criminal act (Bartol & Bartol, 2012).

Criminal profiling is in many cases unreliable so professionals tend to choose analytical criminal investigating to help alleviate errors involving demographics, behaviors or cognitive issues relating to the suspect (Bartol & Bartol, 2012). Errors could involve bias against a particular culture, race or geographical area which would impair the outcome of an investigation. Another issue of importance is relating to the evidence found at...
