Show notes

Known as the Axeman of Brighton Beach. This episode separates myth from reality by examining why Joseph Ntshongwana is best understood as a spree killer rather than a serial murderer. We explore criminal responsibility, psychiatric defences, mental illness in court, planning behaviour, and how judges assess a guilty mind. Follow Profiler Africa for weekly forensic psychology and criminal case breakdowns. Support the show: 👉 https://buymeacoffee.com/profiler #TrueCrime #MentalHealth #CrimeAnalysis #ForensicPsychology
