Show notes

In this episode of Profiler Africa, Paul Llewellyn and Professor Gérard Labuschagne are joined by Gerard's former colleague and SAPS legend, Lt Col (Retired) Elmarie Myburgh. Recorded just 14 days after her official retirement, Elmarie reflects on a 30-year career that defined investigative psychology in South Africa. From the founding of the Investigative Psychology Section in 1997 to her experience of the Rosemary Ndlovu trial, Elmarie has been the constant force behind the conviction of the country's most prolific predators. Join us as we discuss the "Nasrec" killer, the reality of "Behavioral Linkage Analysis," and the psychological toll of three decades in the office of evil.
