Episode Description from the Publisher

A stranger shows up at a Fairfield, California home, talks through a doorbell camera while demanding to know where a daughter is. He claims to be “Harry Dresden,” a fictional character and when he doesn’t get his way, he forces his way inside while a pregnant mother and young child are hiding in the house. Let’s discuss the Jason Thomas Nichols case from a criminal behavior and investigative perspective, looking at home selection, proximity, dress, language, escalation. We’ll separate what is known from what is still unknown, and we’ll talk about what cases like this can teach all of us about awareness, boundaries, and reducing our own risk of being victimized by someone like this. Public reporting says Nichols lived behind the family’s home which might make this seem less random, until you look at a map. #JasonNichols #Fairfield #HomeInvasion #RingCamera #TrueCrime #ProfilingEvil #Law&Crime #CriminalBehavior #SituationalAwareness #PersonalSafety #WolvesInSheepsClothing #HarryDresden #BurbankCourt #CrimeAnalysis #GIS #Esri #JasonThomasNichols========================================CrimeCon Discount Code: https://crimecon.regfox.com/cctw3ntys1x (In Voucher/Coupon area, enter: PROFILINGEVIL========================================https://gamutpodcasts.com/show/gardensofevilinsidethezionsocietycult/========================================20% OFF Newspapers.comhttps://www.newspapers.com/go/podcast/?ref=profilingevil?xid=8877&utm_source=ProfilingEvilPodcast&utm_medium=podcst&utm_campaign=ProfilingEvil26========================================Email your questions to: ProfilingEvil@gmail.com========================================💳 DONATE: https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=T54JX76RZ455S💵 PayPal: https://paypal.me/profilingevil🕵️BECOME A MEMBER: https://www.youtube.com/profilingevil/join🛒SHOP MERCH: https://www.profilingevil.com/profilingevilshop📖SHOP BOOKS: https://www.profilingevil.com/storeSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
