Profiling Evil Podcast with Mike King
The Profiling Evil Podcast delves into unsolved criminal cases from around the world. We look into the mind of the predator and talk about crime motivation, victim selection and behavior. Some episodes examine how investigators work and how they capitalize on mistakes made by the offender.
Your host, Mike King, retired after a distinguished law enforcement career where he served as Chief of Staff to Utah Attorney General Jan Graham and Weber County Attorney Reed M. Richards. He learned policing in the Ogden Utah Police Department where he served in patrol, traffic (motors) enforcement and SWAT. As an investigator, he led task forces and pursued serial predators throughout his career.
He served as co-chair of the FBI’s ViCAP (Violent Criminal Apprehension Program) National Advisory Board and as Director of UTAP, the Utah Criminal Tracking and Analysis Project. During the 2002 Winter Olympic Games in Salt Lake City, he worked in the intelligence section.
After retirement from public service, he went to work at Environmental Systems Research Institute where he consulted with law enforcement around the world on intelligence gathering, real-time crime reporting and major event management. He retired in 2024 to pursue Profiling Evil fulltime.
Mike is an internationally recognized speaker and trainer, adjunct professor and visiting scholar at several accredited universities. He is a violent crimes and criminal behavior subject-matter expert who has authored, “Deceived, An Investigative Memoir of the Zion Society Cult," "She Knew No Fear," “Who Killed King Tut?,” “Predators, Who Are They and How Do We Stop Them?” and “Profilers.”

Analyzing Chad Daybell's Death Row Letter #1 | Profiling Evil
What do you get when a convicted killer tries to stage-manage his legacy from Death Row? Chad Daybell’s new prison letters are less a private outpouring and more a calculated rebranding—religious framing, family testimony, nostalgic anecdotes, and the promise of “more” to come. In this episode we pull the curtain back on those letters and trace the psychological playbook: narcissistic supply, image control, and the strategic seeding of an appeals narrative. We’ll map the players—Chad Daybell and Lori Vallow, Tammy Daybell, Tylee Ryan and JJ Vallow—then drop in other critical figures who appear in the bleed-through of the story: Charles Vallow, Alex Cox, Brandon Beaudreau (and the variants people search), the witnesses who testified, local law enforcement in Rexburg and Fremont County, FBI agents, and the prosecutors who built the case. This is equal parts courtroom forensic, cult-leader theater, and behavioral profile—aimed at listeners who want to see the rhetorical tricks, the legal signals, and the people who keep getting pulled back into this tragic orbit.
