Modus operandi

With a sharp mind, strong investigative instincts and an insight into the psychology of criminals, Luther is heavily equipped to hunt dangerous killers. However, in his dogged pursuit of justice he is not always happy with playing by the book, and he will occasionally break the rules to make sure to catch the criminal. This sometimes involves threats and blackmail, and he has suggested that he would not be above tampering with evidence to obtain a conviction. Luther is also physically strong, and can resort to violence when he feels it's deserved.
