Description: Human psychology, especially those of criminals, have been a topic of interest for many law enforcement / criminal justice majors; it is an ongoing study to understand why people commit and continue to commit crimes. In this episode, Dr. Shawna Gibson highlights her experience with the graduate forensic psychology program at John Jay College in New York and doctoral criminology program with the Università di Trento in Italy along with how she ultimately became a crime analyst. Shawna’s previous experience as a therapist and extensive research in white-collar crimes, information security, cybercrimes, and transatlantic cooperation brought a diverse and unique perspective to the Washington State Fusion Center as well the Bellevue Police Department. Shawna’s badge stories involve investigating burglary rings, including cooperating and networking with multiple entities and testifying as an expert witness. Shawna is currently a crime analyst for the Bellevue (WA) Police Department.
