Phillip Resnik, MD, is a leading international authority on forensic
psychiatry, specializing in the clinical prediction of the risk of
violence and the assessment of malingering and deception. He
consulted on or provided expert testimony witness on a number of
high profile criminal cases, including those of Jeffrey Dahmer,
Susan Smith, Timothy McVeigh, Andrea Yates, Scott Peterson, Casey
Anthony, Theodore Kaczynski (the Unabomber), and James Holmes
(Colorado theater shooter).
This workshop will provide a practical map through the uncertainty
in risk assessment for violence in individuals with psychiatric
disorders. Dangerousness will be discussed in persons with
schizophrenia, mania, depression and personality disorders. Special
attention will be given to which delusions and hallucination are
more likely to lead to violence.
