INVESTIGATIVE PROFILING
Crime classification
assists investigative profiling, a step within investigative considerations.
Investigative profiling is best viewed as a strategy enabling law enforcement to
narrow the field of options and generate educated guesses about the perpetrator.
It has been described as a collection of leads (Rossi, 1982), as an informed
attempt to provide detailed information about a certain type of criminal
(Geberth, 1981), and as a biological sketch of behavioral patterns, trends, and
tendencies (Vorpagel, 1982).
