The ForenPsych Files

Dr. N

Dr. N dives into the captivating world of forensic psychology in a twist on true crime podcasts. Can you make a murderer? Can we trust expert witnesses? How are false memories made? How likely is it that you would confess to a crime you didn't commit? All these questions and so much more are discussed on the podcast. Weekly episodes will touch on different topics, stories, and empirically-based research that highlight forensic psychology's contribution to true crime and the legal system as a whole.
