Research Interests
Currently Jackie is busy with a project entitled - Behavioural crime linkage of serial murder in South Africa - which is a project in conjunction with the South African Police Service. The objective is to investigate if structured behavioural dimensions – for example instrumental and expressive aggression and types of sexual behaviour – can be identified in South African serial murder offences. The aim of the research is to determine whether specific thematic dimensions of offending could be identified in serial murder offenders.
The research aims to provide a more specific situational impact (South African Context) as to the general understanding of serial offenders and also contribute to the over field of behavioural analysis.
