In this episode we discuss the infamous murder trial of Loepold & Loeb, who in 1924 kidnapped and murdered 14-year-old Bobby Franks in Chicago. The crime would come to be regarded, at least until the murder of Nicole Brown Simpson, as the murder of the century. We take a look at their behavior and the psychiatric testimony.

Safety or relapse prevention plans are used in a number of areas of forensic mental health treatment, such as with persons with histories of substance abuse or sexual offending.
This final episode in our series on relapse prevention, which includes our episodes Relapse Prevention with an Offender Population and Offense Cycles, as well as our post Lapse Map, explores numerous applications of offense cycles and a discussion on working with resistive recipients. Each of these can be accessed on a variety of platforms or at forensicinservice.com
As a follow-up to our last episode on Relapse Prevention with an Offender Population, in this episode we discuss offense cycles and node-link mapping. Both of these models are compatible with treatment programs based in relapse prevention that rely on cognitive-behavioral approaches. For this episode we also have a corresponding blog post, titled The Lapse Map. Contained within that blog post is a free download of a general lapse map we created during our work with sex offenders and recently updated.
As an additional bonus, please see our post under the category Risk Assessment entitled Assessing Probability to Sexually Re-Offend. In this post I provide a factitious case and score it on the Static-99R. This material is also free for professionals to access.

Non compos mentis is a Latin phrase meaning not having command of one's mind. This episode is part 1 of a 2 part series dealing with the subject of insanity and the law. Part 1 specifically deals with the insanity defense and provides an overview of its history and structure and then concludes with a brief outline of the process insanity acquittals go through post-trial. Given that the Not Guilty By Reason of Insanity (NGRI) or Not Responsible Due to Mental Disease or Defect is both extremely complicated and can vary widely from state to state much of the specific information provided in this episode is focused on New York's process known as CPL 330.20.
Part II of this series will take a deeper look at the process that governs the movement, progress, and eventual release to the community of insanity acquittals and will feature an interview with Sheila Shea, Esq., current Director of the Mental Hygiene Legal Service (MHLS), Third Judicial Department, responsible for the legal representation of all persons found Not Responsible Due to Mental Disease or Defect.
