PART TWO. Many forensic mental health practitioners, including psychologists, psychiatrists, counselors, and social workers, use technology on a daily basis. Forensic mental health professionals should become familiar with ethical and legal responsibilities concerning confidentiality and the use of technologies such as telephones, cell phones, fax, e-mail, and chat. Becoming cognizant of the benefits and hazards in using technology will enhance the forensic practitioner's ability to practice risk management within his or her particular work setting.

PART TWO. Small family-owned corporations are often viewed as safe, stable work environs. Fewer employees equal a less stressful workplace, the possibility of becoming the next Enron or WorldCom seems slight, and close friendships flourish. However, these very reasons can cause small businesses to have a higher risk of susceptibility to fraud. Rather than being easier to review and control financial data, having a small staff can provide greater opportunities for collusion, and segregation of duties issues result in one or two staff members having the ability to manipulate financial accounts. It can also surprise one just how little you really know your coworkers.

PART TWO. The mythic version of how a psychiatrist helped end the offender’s attacks has been told in many venues, usually idealized, but just how Brussel worked and who he was has been overlooked.
