Ep 273: Profiling and Preventing Mass Shooters with Katherine Schweit

Laura interviews retired FBI Special Agent Katherine Schweit who created and led the agency’s active shooter program after the shootings at Sandy Hook in 2012. In the wake of the Minneapolis shooting on August, 27 2025 where two children, 10-year-old Harper Moyski and 8-year-old Fletcher Merkel were murdered, Laura and Kate share the characteristics of mass shooters, the behaviour that reveals they are preventable, the connection with domestic abuse, coercive control and the deep seated motivation for power and control. Listen to this life saving and changing conversation and learn what went wrong at Uvalde when police waited more than an hour before confronting and killing the gunman, who shot dead 19 children and 2 adults as well as how to talk with your child(ren) as a parent. Join Laura and Kate for a Ringleader live event in the Crime Analyst Squad on September 24 2025 to discuss her new book, Women Who Talk to the Dead: www.patreon.com/CrimeAnalyst    #MassShooting #Prevention #Profiling #ActiveShooter #Minneapolis #Education #Behaviour #MaleEntitlement #Patriarchy #Psychology #PowerAndControl #WomenWhoTalkToTheDead #HiddenHomicides #CrimeAnalyst #TrueCrime #Podcast #HighRisk #WarningSigns #CrimeAnalystSqaud Clip https://www.nbcnews.com/nightly-news/video/victims-identified-in-minneapolis-school-shooting-246038085596 Find more from KateSocials: @kateschweit https://www.katherineschweit.com/it-starts-with-knowledge FB: Katherine Schweit, Author LinkedIn: Katherine Schweit Consulting: https://www.schweitconsulting.com/ Kate’s Books Stop the Killing: How to Prevent Mass Shooting: https://a.co/d/aKZJNxD How to Talk About Gun’s With Anyone: https://www.fbi.gov/news/stories/fbi-releases-study-on-active-shooter-incidents Women Who Talk To the Dead: https://a.co/d/22Q6Y4Y Sources   Kate’s Ted Talk: https://youtu.be/fqnq0Br-UEg?si=P6dr1eYwzVmjOMP_ https://www.businessinsider.com/uvalde-fbi-shooter-policy-author-questions-hesitant-police-response-2022-5 https://www.nytimes.com/2022/05/30/opinion/uvalde-school-shooting.html https://www.thelaurarichards.com/resources/coercivecontrol   https://www.thelaurarichards.com/resources/stalking https://www.thelaurarichards.com/resources/books https://www.thelaurarichards.com/my-two-cents/serial-and-high-risk-stalkers-and-domestic-abusers Thank You to Crime Analyst Sponsors Who Make the Show Possible.
