Hello everybody!
My question is how closely do the police work with forensic psychologists when they come across a potentially mentally ill criminal?
Is there a particular rule set that Forensic Psychologists have to follow and keep in mind while working on these cases?
The police work closely with forensic psychologists when they come across a potentially mentally ill criminal. The psychologists will often interview the criminal and try to understand their mental state. They may also administer psychological tests to determine if the criminal is mentally ill.
