Can I ask what role she did? I read a book last year called ‘The Devil You Know - Tales of Forensic Psychiatry’. It was very illuminating and interesting, each chapter a different (anonymised) story of one of her patients. Especially her ‘bike lock’ theory of why some people can commit such horrific crimes.
She posits that some people have a ‘combination lock’ which, when the right numbers all come up together, pushes them over the line into a horrific violent act.
EG if someone was beaten by their father as a child, go through some trauma as an adult, are under a lot of stress, then some guy in the street who looks a lot like their dad used to starts screaming at him because he bumped into him, then BLAM they’re smashing his face in with a nearby brick before they understand what’s happening.
Uh, I think she was a handler, of sorts. Don’t rightfully know, I just know it was a job with a lot of risks and it was hella stressful. Her workplace had one “inmate” escape and murder a 9-year old one time and that was just, well devastating.

I take my hat off to anyone who does these sorts of jobs, it must be very mentally gruelling.
