From the supplier: The security director must be able to assess the quality of hate letters to determine whether these can escalate to physical violence directed against the recipient. The language, sentence structure, and content can help determine the writer's psychological state, motivation and seriousness of intent. The last item may be determined through the focus and specificity of the letter. It is also important to assess the personality traits of the author to help determine the seriousness of the threat.
