Language profiling -
basics and case analyzes of forensic linguistics
After the bestseller "The Code of Evil", Raimund H. Drommel presents this scientifically based volume on language profiling. The founder of linguistic criminology shows how interdisciplinary methods can be used to decipher the language profiles of anonymous authors or to exonerate people from the suspicion of being the authors of anonymous or pseudonymous texts.
“The whole person is present in his language. And so it may not be surprising that everything human, the all too human and the inhuman, is expressed in language.”
The Code of Evil
Even if the perpetrator wears gloves, his linguistic fingerprint gives him away: A young woman has supposedly committed suicide, but her suicide note reveals the murderer. An industrialist is kidnapped and the blackmail letter becomes the kidnappers' undoing. Raimund H. Drommel is Germany's most renowned language profiler. For the first time, he tells his most spectacular cases from 25 years, provides insights into his methods and deciphers the code of evil.
Linguistic criminology
In this book the reader also learns new things about the Barschel murderer. While Heinrich Wille does not provide a single solid piece of evidence for Barschel's murder in his book "A Murder That Wasn't Allowed to Be" and Wille's investigations were demonstrably characterized by a high degree of amateurism and unprofessionalism, the reader is presented with the case study "Death in Geneva", on the other hand, the youngest member of the hit squad was almost served on a silver platter. And his real name remains anonymous only for legal reasons.
