That is, in place-based, problem-based, offender-focused, and community-based approaches, crime analysis plays an integral part, not only in guiding police to the places, problems, and people, but also in effective implementation of the tactics and strategies. She will provide an overview of the comprehensive organizational model for implementing evidence-based crime reduction strategies—Stratified Policing—focusing on the role of analysis as the foundation for directing strategies as well as evaluating crime reduction results. Finally, she will talk about the “four-phase process” of translating research to practice, and the promising future of crime analysts as translators and as essential to effective policing. Bio: Dr. Rachel Santos is currently a professor of Criminal Justice and Co-Director of the Center for Police Practice, Policy and Research (www.radford.edu/cp3r) at Radford University, in Radford, Virginia. Her interests include conducting practice-based research which is implementing and evaluating evidence-based crime reduction practices in the “real world” of criminal justice. In particular, she seeks to improve crime prevention and proactive crime reduction efforts by police in areas such as crime analysis, problem solving, accountability, as well as leadership and organizational change. She and Dr. Roberto Santos co-created Stratified Policing which is an organizational model for systemizing proactive crime reduction strategies and problem solving in police departments. Other areas of research include police/researcher partnerships, police/community collaboration, hot spot and problem-oriented policing, predictive policing, environmental criminology, crime and place, police/crime data and technology, experimental research methodology, and program evaluation. From 1994 to 2000, she was a crime analyst in a local police department of about 400 officers where she did all types of crime analysis as well as research on motor vehicle theft. Since 2000, she has lead federally funded research and technical assistance projects in these areas for the National Institute of Justice, the Office of Community Policing Services, and the Bureau of Justice Assistance. From these projects, she has published many final reports, practitioner guidebooks, and articles for both academic and professional journals. She has one of the only sole authored books on crime analysis in its fourth edition, Crime Analysis with Crime Mapping (2017) which has also been translated in Chinese. Dr. Santos earned her master’s degree and doctor of philosophy in sociology from Arizona State University in Tempe, AZ. Dr. Margo Watt, St Francis Xavier University, “Two Unlikely Serial Killers: What Can We Learn from Case Studies?” Abstract: “While nothing is easier than to denounce the evildoer; nothing is more difficult than to understand him.” This quote by Fyodor Dostoevsky captures the essence of Dr. Watt’s 2014 book entitled: Explorations in Forensic Psychology: Cases in Criminal and Abnormal Behaviour; a book that assumes an evidence-based approach to assisting readers in better understanding the biological, psychological, and social factors that contribute to deviant behaviour. Her presentation will focus on two of the cases contained therein – “Cruel and Disgraceful Conduct: Russell Williams” and “Case Study of a Black Widow: Melissa Shepard” Russell Williams was a 46-year-old model military man and decorated colonel and commander of Canada’s largest and busiest air force bases when he was convicted in October 2010 for two brutal murders, two sexual assaults, and 82 fetish burglaries; 79-year-old Melissa Shepard was nicknamed the "Internet Black Widow" for her ability to marry and murder grieving widowers. These two cases include particular elements (age, sex/gender,
