Former FBI Agent Explains Criminal Profiling | Tradecraft | WIRED

According to Jim Clemente, retired FBI behavioral analyst and criminal profiler, when it comes to the "nature vs. nurture" debate, "genetics loads the gun, personality and psychology aim it, and your experiences pull the trigger..." As a criminal profiler, it was his job to catch murderers, serial killers and rapists and pick up the slack where forensic evidence failed. Clemente explains how he went about his job tracking down some of the world's most dangerous people.
Clemente is a retired FBI behavioral analyst and criminal profiler, and co-host of "Real Crime Profile," a true crime podcast distributed by Wondery. For more information about his career, go to www.jimclemente.com, or follow him on twitter at / jimclemente

interesting that he said....genetics(DNA) load the gun...

@Please Complete All Fields Because when you mention genetics/DNA with crime you open a can of worms where people start throwing terms like racism around...

@Please Complete All Fields You obviously can not read...All I wrote is when you connect Genetics/DNA and crime there are people (of the leftist persuasion and race baiters) who will immediately call that racist. You can't be that dense not to know that. The same thing occurs when you bring up issues like people's IQ.

in many cases it makes them more predictable... Remember to actually commit the crimes you need to be a bit crazy. Take Ed Camper, he actually gave himself up to the police. So, in reality, random killers can be unlucky but are VERY hard to predict and anticipate... Someone like the unabomber always ends up making a mistake and because of their methods are very easy to track once they make that one mistake.

Jim Clemente: Uses advanced psychological knowledge combined with a deep understanding of criminology to profile and catch criminals. Criminal Minds: "The unsub killed the victim then dressed him in a Tutu and stuffed a slipper in his mouth. Therefore he must've been beat as a child with a slipper while forced to wear a Tutu. Babygirl pull up all results of tutu beating cases in the last 20-30 years."

THE ACCURACY 😭

[@SophTheWise]

“Tutu beating cases” LMAOOO GOODBYE

[@jannetteberends8730]

He forgot the head injury. This is what research found. After that I looked in real crime videos if there was a head injury involved. And indeed almost all serial killers had a head injury as a child.

[@siyylove]

anyone that studies the intellects of a person and behaviours is extremely smart, especially this man, the way he talks is amazing

[@Soopooli]

That's what I heard: "I'm supervisory special agent badass, working in the badass section of the FBI, badass, badass...". He's just impressive...

[@cmccmc3306]

He was also a District attorney before FBI. His scores for FBI tests were never before seen apparently. what a mind!!!

I find it unnerving that there are people out there who could tell your whole character with a full hints

[@funkiebutch9690]

It's profilling. 80% it's accurate, but doesn't mean it could tell you exactly who are you or the offender. Otherwise, there won't be any unsolved cases.

[@joyfullyfatedtodoom]

Unnerving huh? People love telling lies about themselves.

[@carlosv6635]

I want to hear this guy talk more about previous cases he has worked on.

[@mercedesfortin2597]

thank god you are here !!! you probably didn't get enough praise !!! THANK YOU for doing what you do !!!

[@Robert-xp4ii]

The way his body completely hides the chair he's sitting on (at least at the end), it looked like he was just sitting in mid-air. It was odd looking.

[@hkr667]

This guy may think he's smart but I've watched all seasons of Criminal Minds so I know way more.

You probably already know it, but he is co writer and producer on Criminal minds, as a fun fact :)

James "Jim" T. Clemente is an American author, former New York State prosecutor, former FBI profiler, podcast co-host and creator of the show Real Crime Profile, and writer/producer on CBS' Criminal Minds.

[@LK-bz9sk]

Excellent presentation. What a great teacher and speaker.

[@kendrickdinger]

I wrote an essay for my psychology class on the nature vs nature argument on serial killers and I used Jim’s quote in it:)

He writes for criminal minds!

[@user-mb9nm7bq5e]

Rinnstwist that’s awesome, thanks for the info

[@mirandanils5114]

Ye criminal minds is definitely based on real events

[@onemillionpercent]

Nils Sjöberg i know ur being sarcastic so I just wanna add on to ur comment bc it’s honestly an amazing, albeit slightly unrealistic show because they capture mainly using the profile but profiles are usually just leads irl - it’s more unpredictable and the success rates solely based on the profile are a lot lower than they seem on the show

[@zinniasegura7508]

This guy has my dream job, it was fascinating to see all the information he knows! Super admirable.

[@georgiam.3957]

Hope everything goes well with your journey at becoming a profiler

[@georgiam.3957]

@James Bond i wanna become a forensic pathologist and these kind of jobs fascinate me so nope I'm not

[@meganagetro6302]

That’s admirable.. I just hope you can get passed the fbis behavioral science unit..and listen to the tapes of serial murders confessions. And all that ..I was like it’s okay I can take it.. made only some research on it and just stayed away; it so creeped me out.

[@georgiam.3957]

@James Bond shut up

[@thenewninja7450]

I would love to see a criminal profiler profile solved cases. It would be interesting to see how many they get right

[@kendragarchow2228]

Jim Clemente always has such great information. He always has such great information. I highly recommend the podcast Real Crime Profile that Jim Clemente Co-hosts with Laura Richards and Lisa Zambetti.

I love this guys podcast he is so empathetic and knowledgeable 💕 a rare gem 💎

[@ailxnhernxndez5335]

It’d be really cool if he did another video breaking down how accurate criminal minds actually is

[@jvanegas9]

He is a writter and producer of the series, so problaby the show it's really accurate but with more dosis of drama

[@2close2themoon]

So the profile he gave about the love triangle murder ... was he right? Would love to know!

[@juliedavis9659]

What I love about this man is that he is not only calm, but extremely informative. He doesn't use his emotions to get in the way of what he does. And that in itself is exactly why he is so good at what he does.

[@yevgeniyaleshchenko849]

Well duh! This job does not involve emotions BY DEFAULT! Analysis relies on mind which goes without saying... Why would he or anyone in his position ''use his emotions'' at the job? What a redundant comment. It's just called doing one's job...
