Since then I've tried to balance my life, but it's still very difficult for me. Just yesterday, I spoke in Hampton, Virginia to victim advocates. It was a very emotional experience having many victims who were present either thanking me for helping them cope with the loss of their loved one, as well as asking for me to possibly help them and law enforcement identify the person resposible for their loss. There are people who call themselves profilers who have very little experience or skill. Even when I ran the FBI's Investigative Support Unit, I had people who were labelled profilers, but in my mind weren't competent.
Some internists are exceptional, and others are just fair.
The ones who have a lot of experience, who have conducted research, and have dealt with a variety of illnesses and health problems will generally come up with a better diagnosis. I'm the first one to tell anyone who asks for assistance that profiling is not a substitute for a thorough and well-planned investigation. Like any profession, you're requesting assistance. When looking for a profiler, you have to be careful. I know you had profiled him in the early stages of your development of profiling.
