What made Chandra Levy tick?
The first step, according to profilers, is to evaluate whether Levy was at high risk or low risk for random violence. Someone at high risk might be a prostitute or drug dealer who regularly meets dozens of strangers. A person at low risk would be someone like a suburban middle-class housewife who lives in a safe neighborhood. Profilers say Levy fell into the low-risk category. Even though she was a young, single woman living in a big city, an internship is considered predictable and safe. And there is no indication Levy was abusing drugs or involved in gambling. Profilers also point out that the young woman seemed careful. She belonged to a gym because she reportedly thought it would be safer than running in the city, and carried her cell phone almost everywhere. Thats why its curious that when Levy disappeared, her cell phone and wallet were left behind. And police dogs lost Levy’s scent outside her building, suggesting that Levy got in a car with somebody she knew and didn’t plan on
