Profiling Evil Podcast with Mike King
The Profiling Evil Podcast delves into unsolved criminal cases from around the world. We look into the mind of the predator and talk about crime motivation, victim selection and behavior. Some episodes examine how investigators work and how they capitalize on mistakes made by the offender.

He learned policing in the Ogden Utah Police Department where he served in patrol, traffic (motors) enforcement and SWAT.

He served as co-chair of the FBI’s ViCAP (Violent Criminal Apprehension Program) National Advisory Board and as Director of UTAP, the Utah Criminal Tracking and Analysis Project. During the 2002 Winter Olympic Games in Salt Lake City, he worked in the intelligence section.
