About the show

Behind every murder is a motive. From revenge to jealousy, from greed to control, identifying what drives people to kill is essential in bringing them to justice. For thirty years, Consultant Forensic Psychologist Kerry Daynes has unravelled the minds behind the darkest crimes. Now, in The Profiler, she takes you inside some of Britain’s most disturbing murder cases, presenting the full stories with the clarity of a seasoned documentary maker, but also stepping outside the narratives to do what she does best: getting inside the mind of each perpetrator to reveal what made them act the way they did. More than just true crime, these are journeys into the darkest extremes of human behaviour — with someone who has actually sat across the table from killers and studied them up close. New episodes every week. Cases drawn from the last three decades of British criminal history. Subscribe wherever you get your podcasts, or visit theprofiler.co.uk. Hosted on Acast.
