Black Holes and Spider Webs: Mapping Murder (Enhanced DVD) Most people today are familiar with the concept of forensic science and how important physical evidence is in capturing dangerous criminals. But what happens when victims disappear, seemingly without a trace? Professor David Canter explains how geographical profiling can lead detectives in the right direction in this installment of Mapping Murder.We are presented cases such as the Cromwell Street Murders, where 13 young women mysteriously disappeared and were presumed dead. Authorities explain how geographical profiling revealed a pattern of “black holes”, areas where multiple victims seemed to disappear, and how this pattern lead to the apprehension of notorious serial killers Fred and Rosemary West.Later we learn how black hole profiling can reveal an intricate network of criminal accomplices. We are presented the extraordinarily disturbing case of Mark Dutroux, a serial killer and abuser who targeted children, who used his web-like network of criminal friends to abduct children and distribute child pornography. Ultimately we discover how the same heinous web that hid him led to his arrest.Black Holes and Spider Webs: Mapping Murder
