John Douglas really deserves more recognition than what he gets, I mean aside from the book that he wrote in my list he also features in the one about the Zodiac, The Blooding (which was a case that happened in the UK and they still called him in) and the green river murders (which almost killed him)

if it wasn't him then someone else would have come along and done it but you can't overlook what he did.

and for the record Mindhunter is fucking brilliant, the way they portray the killers is 9 times out of 10 absolutely spot on
