There will be one (1) paper assignment due at the end of Week 10 (Sunday, Jul. 18th by 11:59pm). The assignment is worth 7.72% of your final grade. For this assignment, you will submit a profile of a serial offender that you will be selecting on your own. You can choose an offender discussed in the text, online, from other books, or any other resource (at the disclosure of the professor). Once you select your offender, you will:
Discuss if the offender fits the common profile of the serial murder offender. This requires much more than providing a biography of the serial killer.
Apply a typology used in the text and apply it to the offender. In doing so, explain how the offender aligns with the typology.
Discuss how the particular offender’s crimes were solved (if applicable: if they were unresolved, discuss this, too); and the resolution of the case.
Cite sources using APA format. Your paper must also be in APA format. There is no required length for this paper. However, it must be comprehensive and fulfill all necessary requirements.
NOTE: Even though the paper is not due until later in the semester, you may work on this off-line and simply upload when it is due. You will be uploading your paper in Canvas, but your paper will process through Turnitin.com – a plagiarism detection program. There will be no make-ups for the paper, as you have almost the entire term to complete it. If you find that you have not finished the paper by the due date, submit what you have completed for partial credit.
