Offender Interaction With Victims in Homicide

Homicide grows out of a transaction between individuals. This transaction is a product of the individuals and their relationship. More may therefore be understood about different “styles” of homicide by examining how an offender acts toward a victim during the crime. The analysis of the actual behaviors used by offenders at 247 single offender–single victim homicide crime scenes indicated a pattern of frequencies that follow a continuum from where the offender reacts in an impulsive way toward the emotions engendered through the conflicted interpersonal relationship with the victim, to where the offender interacts with the victim much more at a removed level, both physically and emotionally. Behaviors can thus be seen to follow a thematic pattern that can be related to underlying psychological principles, which closely relate to how an offender interacts with the victim at the crime scene.
