I just wrote my forensic psych prof to see if she knows of any research. Will keep posted if I hear anything. She might be on vacation right now.

IIRC, Bundy's wife thought he was innocent right up until shortly before his execution, when after an appeal was denied, he told her to tell the lawyer he'd give up the locations of more bodies they didn't know about in exchange for a commutation.

Well my old prof (who has shiploads of experience in the field) is not aware of any research on prison groupies.
This is intriguing. If I could figure out a good research question and how to explain why it should matter to anybody else I may have some fun research to do.

At any rate, I do think that this sort of research would be very interesting, and would bet that it has already been done and your prof just doesn't know about it. But if it hasn't been done, it's doctoral level stuff. Quit talking about it in the Internet, or someone will steal the idea. Instead, jump on it. And yes, I'm quite serious. Get started as soon as you read this post. You don't have to have your question yet. To get started you just need to make a plan, and your professors can help you do that. I'm no sociologist, so I can't help. I don't know the methodology. But the best research ideas are not ideas that researchers invent to get degrees and grants. The best research ideas come from authentic human curiosity. Go and become the world's expert on this subject, and you're almost guaranteed to be on Oprah some day. Jump on it! |

Bjørn, how is the mood there these days? Is the story still something in the daily press?
