Sažetak
Offender profiling is one of the most controversial parts of modern criminology, psychology and psychiatry, still in its developmental stage. In this paper, we tried to describe some of the well known profiling models – Holmes and Holmes model, Keppel and Walter model and Tur-vey’s model. Also, we described three approaches in offender profiling along with their corre-sponding models: Douglas et. al. are members of criminal investigative approach, Turco’s model represents clinical practitioner approach and Canter’s model scientific statistical ap-proach. Research have shown that police officers mostly have confidence in offender profiling and that psychiatrists and psychologists think of profiling as useful, yet there is no definitive answer to whether profiling is possible and valid. Profiler will not be able to say with no doubt who might the perpetrator be, but narrowing down the suspect list could as well help the inves-tigation.
