À propos de ce contenu audio

The Profiling Evil Podcast delves into unsolved criminal cases from around the world, peeling back the layers of human behavior to reveal what drives evil. We look into the mind of the predator—their motivations, their victim selection, and the patterns that expose them. Each episode goes beyond headlines, examining how investigators identify red flags, connect the dots, and capitalize on the very errors offenders believe will never be found.

Your host, Mike King, brings over four decades of experience in criminal justice and behavioral analysis. A retired law enforcement executive, Mike served as Chief of Staff to Utah Attorney General Jan Graham and Weber County Attorney Reed M. Richards. He began his career at the Ogden Police Department, where he worked patrol, motor enforcement, and SWAT before moving into investigations where he led task forces that hunted serial predators and violent offenders.

Mike’s expertise earned him national recognition. He served as co-chair of the FBI’s Violent Criminal Apprehension Program (ViCAP) National Advisory Board, directed UTAP, the Utah Criminal Tracking and Analysis Project, and supported intelligence operations during the 2002 Winter Olympic Games in Salt Lake City.

After retiring from public service, Mike joined the Environmental Systems Research Institute (Esri), where he spent years consulting with police agencies around the globe on intelligence gathering, emergency communications, and major event management. In 2024, he retired again, this time to focus full-time on Profiling Evil and its growing community of true crime investigators, students, and enthusiasts.

Mike is an internationally recognized speaker, trainer, and adjunct professor, as well as a visiting scholar at multiple universities. He’s authored several acclaimed works on crime and human behavior, including:

· Wolves in Sheep’s Clothing

· Deceived: An Investigative Memoir of the Zion Society Cult

· She Knew No Fear

· Who Killed King Tut?

· Predators: Who Are They and How Do We Stop Them?

· Profilers

Mike’s investigative insight and behavioral expertise have been featured on Court TV, NewsNation, Law & Crime Network, Dr. Phil, History’s Greatest Mysteries, and 60 Minutes Australia, where his calm, analytical style helps audiences understand the why behind the world’s most chilling crimes.

At @ProfilingEvil, you’ll find deep dives into real investigations, expert analysis of offender behavior, and lessons in situational awareness and safety. It’s more than storytelling, it’s about learning how to recognize, understand, and ultimately disrupt evil.

  • The Casanova Killer, John Paul Knowles and His Hunting Grounds | Profiling Evil

    The Casanova Killer, John Paul Knowles and His Hunting Grounds | Profiling Evil
    May 16 2026

    I’m standing at a remote rest stop in eastern Nevada, south of Ely where a 1974 stopover became the crime scene of yet another victim of serial killer Paul John Knowles, also known as The Casanova Killer. This episode examines how Knowles used mobility as a weapon, why rest stops and highways became part of his hunting strategy, and how his victim selection evolved as his confidence grew and his mistakes mounted. This isn’t just a story about a serial killer. It’s a story about movement, vulnerability, and how ordinary places can become dangerous when a predator intersects with routine. If you care about true crime as understanding and not a spectacle, this episode is for you.

  • Witch Trials, Serial Predators and a Modern Murder from Baden-Baden to Freiburg | Profiling Evil

    Witch Trials, Serial Predators and a Modern Murder from Baden-Baden to Freiburg | Profiling Evil
    May 12 2026

    I’m continuing my true crime travels through Europe, this time through Baden-Baden, the Black Forest, Triberg and Freiburg. These are some of the most beautiful places you can visit in Germany, but each one carries a darker story beneath the scenery. In Baden-Baden, we look at the witch trials of 1627 to 1631, when fear, religion, politics and forced confessions helped turn accusation into execution. In the Black Forest and Triberg, we talk about Heinrich Pommerenke, the violent West German serial offender known as the “Beast of the Black Forest,” whose 1959 crimes showed how predators can use roads, railways, stations and public spaces to move across a region. Then in Freiburg, we examine the 2016 murder of 19-year-old medical student Maria Ladenburger, a case built through careful police work, DNA, transit surveillance and phone data.

    We’re talking more than just crime cases. We’ll dig into evidence, fear, geography, victimology and the way beautiful places disguise criminal horror stories. How justice systems can replace proof with panic or how offenders move discretely through ordinary spaces and how good investigations come together one fact at a time.

  • What Spouses NEED TO Know! When Trauma Memories Come Out. | Profiling Evil

    What Spouses NEED TO Know! When Trauma Memories Come Out. | Profiling Evil
    May 9 2026

    When survivors finally begin talking about abuse, especially years later, the truth rarely arrives in one neat statement. It often comes in fragments, sensory flashes, and moments that can leave spouses and families confused, hurt, or unsure what to do next. In this episode, Mike King sits down with psychologist Dr. Patrice Berry to walk through one of the hardest true crime realities behind closed doors, delayed disclosure. They talk about why trauma memories can surface in pieces, why some survivors do not speak until marriage, parenthood, retirement, or a major case in the news, and what loved ones should do in the first hours and days after disclosure. This conversation also looks at criminal justice pressure points, including credibility attacks, investigative contamination concerns, and the damage that can happen when a survivor is doubted, rushed, or forced into details before they are ready. If you care about victims, spouses, memory, and the way trauma ripples through families long after the crime, this episode matters.
