    BENNETT BLUM, M.D.
    Forensic & Geriatric Psychiatry

    Bennett Blum, M.D., is an internationally acclaimed physician specializing in both forensic psychiatry and geriatric psychiatry. He is an expert on the evaluation of undue influence - including the manipulation tactics, coercion and psychological conditions used by offenders to abuse and exploit others. His pioneering assessment techniques in the areas of undue influence, mental capacity, and competency are taught throughout much of the Western Hemisphere

    He has consulted on hundreds of legal cases throughout the United States, including the criminal trials of Susan Smith, Andrea Yates, and Theresa Ramirez; civil litigation case of O.J. Simpson; and litigation regarding Merrill-Lynch and the Orange County bankruptcy. Internationally, Dr. Blum testified in the precedent-setting United Nations trial of General Pavle Strugar - the first full competency hearing at the International War Crimes Tribunal since Nuremberg.

    A Phi Beta Kappa graduate of University of Arizona, Dr. Blum received his medical education from the University of Arizona and psychiatric training at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA). His work has been published by the National College of Probate Judges, State Bar Associations, and in major medical textbooks - including a chapter on elder abuse, exploitation, and legal issues in geriatric psychiatry in the eighth edition of Kaplan and Sadock’s Comprehensive Textbook of Psychiatry. He has also co-authored the internationally acknowledged seminal research on police-assisted suicide (“suicide by cop”), worked as an advisor for several law enforcement training films, including “Predators of the Elderly,” and taught homicide investigators of the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department and the Los Angeles Police Department.
