  • Summary

  • Jim Clemente and Kathy Canning-Mello are both former FBI Profilers. They worked together for more than a decade in the FBI’s legendary Behavioral Analysis Unit (BAU), where they analyzed, researched and consulted on some of the most terrifying violent and sexual crimes across the country.

    As FBI Profilers, they used victimology, the study of the victim, because an offender’s choice of victim unwittingly reveals information about that offender. They identified patterns in offender behavior to zero-in on suspects. And they used indirect personality assessments to figure out a killer’s motivations and, at times, to get them to interact with law enforcement, which could ultimately lead to their identification and capture.

    In an ordinary police department, officers might only come across the worst types of cases once or twice in their careers. So when terrible crimes happen, they might not have the experience to crack the case. That’s where the BAU comes in. Jim and Kathy worked on everything from cold cases to active serial killer investigations, marshalling all their expertise to capture violent offenders and to prevent future crimes.

    In this series, Kathy and Jim revisit the cases that haunted them most over the course of their FBI careers. They bring you along every step of the way in their investigations, to reveal what they learned about some of the most infamous crimes in history and demonstrate the profiling that helped to find the offenders…and bring justice to the victims.

    This series contains mature themes and is not appropriate for all audiences. Listener discretion is advised.

  • Episode 1: Spangler

    Episode 1: Spangler
    Jul 11 2024
    Robert Spangler is one of the most unique serial killers that Jim and Kathy encountered in their careers in the Behavioral Analysis Unit. Spangler killed multiple wives and two of his children over the course of two decades, and had never even been considered a suspect in the death investigations. But then the FBI used criminal behavioral analysis to crack the cases all at once and get Spangler to confess to being a serial killer.

    Israel Keyes was one of the most criminally sophisticated serial killers the world has ever known. He’d been killing for more than a decade and no one even suspected his victims were murdered by a serial killer. This case has so many twists and turns, it took Kathy and Jim two episodes to tell the story…

High quality analysis

Valuable information. Could be a little longer deep dives, but it’s good they compensate with double episodes on more convoluted cases.

Short, but interesting.

Any media about the capturing, understanding, and analyzing of criminals will always be interesting. Very fascinating insight into the mindsets and processes of some of the people involved in some large national cases of violent criminals in America.
Jim and Kathy do a good job, very emotional and thorough, giving different views and theories at times which is nice, showing nothing is ever black and white.
Jim Clemente’s voice reminds me a lot of the actor Jonathan Banks’ voice, but on 2x speed. He has these emotional outbursts sometimes, almost at Kathy, in an almost yelling but somehow still talking voice. This probably is a sign of why he was such an effective worker for the FBI; he cared. He cared a lot. Just funny when in a podcast, directed at his colleague and friend.

Unlistenable fascinating stories

There is a treasure trove of absolutely fascinating material here... IF... you can muddle your way through two very 'NPR drawl' hosts speaking over one another over a wall of apoplectic sound that would have Phil Spector asking for the mastering engineers to tone it down. Such a shame that such egregious production ruins an audio series that would be brilliant were it not for the audio.

I’d like more

Really enjoyed the breakdown of the personalities of the perpetrators and victims to get the entire story. I’d love to hear more cases.
