CQI has had numerous Federal Cases where death was removed as an option after the videos were shown to the Department of Justice (DOJ). CQI has been successful in State cases as well. Sentencing videos can also be used in lesser cases as part of plea deal to show a favorable side of the client.
Profiling
Profiling is an emerging field that blends behavioral science, psychology, and law enforcement. Criminal profiling is used to identify a suspect by analyzing a crime and the evidence available to uncover behavioral and psychological characteristics and create a psychological profile of the offender. Profiling helps the courts and legal professionals understand an individual’s actions and behaviors as it relates to a crime. To do this, one must understand the person from a biopsychosocial level.
