Brent E. Turvey
spent his first years in college on a pre-med track only to change his course of
study once his true interest took hold. He received a Bachelor of Science degree
from Portland State University in Psychology, with an emphasis on Forensic

to receive his Masters of Science in Forensic Science after studying at the
University of New Haven, in West Haven, Connecticut.
Since graduating in
1996, Brent has consulted with many agencies, attorneys, and police departments
in the United States, Australia, China, Canada, Barbados and Korea on a range of
rapes, homicides, and serial/ multiple rape/ death cases, as a forensic
scientist and criminal profiler. He has also been court qualified as an expert
in the areas of criminal profiling, forensic science, victimology, and crime
reconstruction.
In August of 2002,
he was invited by the Chinese People's Police Security University (CPPSU) in
Beijing to lecture before groups of detectives at the Beijing, Wuhan, Hanzou,
and Shanghai police bureaus. In 2005, he was invited back to China again, to
lecture at the CPPSU, and to the police in Beijing and Xian – after the
translation of the 2nd edition of this text into Chinese for the
University. In 2007, he was invited to lecture at the 1st Behavioral Sciences
Conference at the Home Team (Police) Academy in Singapore, where he also
provided training to their Behavioral Science Unit.
He is the author of Criminal Profiling: An Introduction to Behavioral Evidence Analysis, 1st, 2nd, and 3rd Editions (1999, 2002, 2008); co-author of the Rape Investigation Handbook (2004), Crime Reconstruction (2006) and Forensic Victimology (2008)- all with Elsevier Science.
