Talk by forensics lecturer Jennifer Rees exploring the psychology of serial killers, with case studies.
Jennifer Rees brings The Psychology Of Serial Killers to Milton Keynes Theatre on Saturday 16 January 2027. It's a talk that does exactly what the title says: it looks at the minds of serial killers, and it's led by someone who works in the field.
Rees is a forensics lecturer, so this isn't just a true crime fan talking through a few cases. She's coming at the subject from a professional angle, breaking down the psychology behind the patterns and the motivations that drive this kind of violence. The session is built around case studies, so rather than staying in the abstract, she'll be working through specific examples to illustrate the points she's making. If you've spent any time with true crime podcasts or books, this is a chance to hear the academic side of it explained by someone who teaches it.
It's a single evening's talk, not a full course, so you can drop in for the one session without committing to anything more. The case studies are the core of the night, and they're what keep the psychology grounded in real-world examples rather than just theory. It's the kind of thing that works better in a room than on a screen, with a chance to hear it all laid out in person.
