A history of True Crime
Although, with the rise of podcasts and social media true crime may seem to be a new phenomenon. The history of true crime stretches back as far as humanity itself.

History of Crime in Films
As long as there have been movies there have been movie villains. Although the plots may have evolved beyond a moustache-twirling baddie, the role of the criminal has been essential to the popularity of the movie industry. In this talk, Jane will look at some of cinema’s villains and anti-heroes and examine their enduring popularity.

The Mindset of a Serial Killer
