This week we discuss a very timely topic. Stephanie DiPietro, a professor at the University of Iowa's Depart of Sociology and Criminology talks to us about the Bosnian war. What effects such an extreme event of violence had on people in the aftermath. Steph tells us why the term "risk factor" may not be the best way to discuss some of the correlates conducive to crime. Finally, we discuss how this work could be applicable to the events we are seeing today with the invasion of Ukraine.
Steph's work has been published in journals such as Criminology, Sociology of Education, and Journal of Research in Crime and Delinquency.

Can being part of a group make people feel less responsible for criminal behavior? Does it really make it easier to justify the behavior? Probably, but we weren't sure. That's why this week we talked to Zach Rowan, a professor at Simon Fraser University's School of Criminology. We talk about the group's impact on people taking responsibility for their actions. We briefly touch on the environment's impact on group offending.
You can find Zach on Twitter @ZRRowan. He has been published in journals such as the Journal of Youth and Adolescence, Law and Human Behavior, and Criminology.

When we say CSI do you think of D.B. Russell, Horatio Caine, or Mac Taylor? People who go to crime scenes and are scientists and cops rolled into one? Well, this week we spoke with Kathleen Corrado who is a professor of Forensic Science at Syracuse University. Kathy started her career as a CSI in Texas before becoming a professor. She spills all the beans on what it is actually like to be a CSI. She also talks about whether the CSI effect is real and she walks us through DNA evidence collection and analysis. Jenn and Jose were truly outside of their domain in this one!!
Kathy has been published in journals such as Cell and Journal of Cell Biology.
