Show Notes
Jayson is joined by Shiloh, a forensic and law enforcement psychologist and host of the true crime podcast, L.A. Not So Confidential. Forensic psychologists play a much broader and more nuanced role in law enforcement and criminal justice. At its core, forensic psychology is the practice of psychology as it applies to the law and it's a way to bring behavioral scientific knowledge and methods to help answer questions arising in criminal, civil, contractual and other judicial proceedings. They research they evaluate and testify on topics such as eyewitness testimony, competency to stand trial and evaluating insanity.
Forensic psychologists also play a role as jury consultants reducing systemic racism in the criminal justice system, assessing military veterans for service related compensation and supporting the mental health of law enforcement officers and detectives.
They discuss the true role of criminal psychologists in the criminal justice system, how they support law enforcement and others who often experience some form of trauma, the value of forensic psychology and its limits, her podcast and where the television and movie portrayals get it right and get it wrong.
