I spoke to Dr David Holmes from the Crime and Investigation Networks documentary series, 'Born to Kill?'
Dr David Holmes is a psychologist who has specialised in clinical and forensic psychology for a number of decades. He has graced the pages of many magazines and newspapers as he has a wealth of knowledge and expertise in many matters.
I reached out to him after becoming interested in researching a trend where women on TikTok contact criminals in prisons in America, striking up relationships with these often violent offenders and travelling abroad to marry these men behind bars.
I stumbled across the term Hybristophilia and it all began to make sense for me. I also wanted to understand why many women fan girl over serial killers like Ted Bundy and the Columbine School shooters to name a few.
