Acts of mass violence are often described as sudden, random and unstoppable. Evidence from behavioural science and policing tells a different story.

Join us for a timely and important podcast episode with Ian Cherrington, a former senior UK detective and behavioural analyst, now based in Australia, who has spent decades studying what people do before they carry out an act of violence — and how those warning signs are often visible to others. This episode will focus on recognition, responsibility and early action.

Ian Cherrington brings international experience across forensic psychology and behavioural analysis, counter‑terrorism and lone‑actor threat assessment and working with vulnerable individuals drawn toward violence or extremism.

He has examined cases from around the world to understand the journey toward violence, with a strong belief that early intervention can save lives.
