In our previous episode of the True Crime Reporter™ podcast, we presented the murder case of Annie Laurie Williams.
Williams bludgeoned her 8 and 9-year-old sons to death and then dispassionately dismembered their bodies to dispose of them.
Her acts are unthinkable.
In order to bring perspective and understanding to such a crime, cohosts Robert Riggs and Bill Johnston reached out to forensic psychiatrist Dr. Richard Taylor in the United Kingdom.
Dr. Taylor is the author of The Mind of a Murderer. He has worked on more than 100 murder cases.
He explores the subject of Women Who Kill Children in his book.
Dr. Taylor also works with a special unit dealing with threats to the royal family and politicians, which is called the Fixated Threat Assessment Center (FTAC).
You can find a link to more information about the FTAC on our website.
Murder is not just a crime, it is a major public health problem.
In 2017 alone, there were close to a half-million recorded victims of homicide around the globe.
