Crime maps display data on offenses, including the type of crime, and the locations and times the offenses occurred. One application of crime mapping is geographic profiling, a technique that uses crime maps to identify geographic areas where serial offenders are likely to reside or frequent. Suspects may be "prioritized" depending on how close they live to a high-crime area. Geographic profiling has had varying degrees of success. As with all areas of criminal profiling, there are questions about accuracy, usefulness, and biases inherent in geographic profiling. Critics say that geographic factors should be combined with a number of other contributing situational and behavioral factors beyond simply a suspect’s location on a map.

Post by Day 4 your position on whether or not the interrogation of the woman in the media piece was justified based on the information presented from the crime mapping. Justify your response with references to the literature and Learning Resources.
