Incidents, patterns and the analysis underneath them. Public record, doctrinally useful, and written as the events were understood at the time.

A note on how these are written: incidents, schools, dates and locations appear because they are public record and because prevention cannot be taught without them. Individual victims do not. Neither do attackers. That is a deliberate choice and it does not change what the cases teach.

What the research shows

The behavior comes before the event, every time. These are the patterns worth knowing before anything happens.

Case studies

Specific events, examined for what went wrong and what would have changed the outcome.

Threat types and methods

Training and prevention

Workplace violence

From the record

Where the analysis leads

Every case above has the same shape. There was a runway, somebody saw part of it, and the reporting or the response to that reporting failed before the day arrived. That runway is where prevention lives, and it is the whole argument behind the P.R.O. Model™.
