Clarice Starling seems to be very naive as a mental health care provider in how she characterizes people's personalities and actions. She almost dramatizes it in a fantastical way. When it comes to some of the things we (all) may go through in life, if seen in an accused/convicted individual, Starling conflates those qualities with crime and mental illness. This is just a little worse than Drew Pinsky....who just had his show cancelled...finally. I lump people like Starling and Pinsky with the Nancy Graces and other really bad, badly informative shows like hers.
What's worse is this: These "consultants" and "crime specialists" seem to constantly teach and mold many folks who watch their show on how to marginalize 'certain folks' and call people out as sociopaths ... especially if we don't like them and even if their behavior is not directly part of a criminal action. This is a dangerous way of brain washing. It also induces more mediocrity and less creative ways to deal with problems. Just my 9 cents.
