is often the case that those convicted of sexual offences find it difficult to discuss their offending and those who have committed a sexual homicide can be particularly reluctant to talk
about their criminal behaviour. As a result, forensic practitioners frequently rely on crime scene information to identify any sexual behaviour associated with a homicide. The study aimed to
look for discernable patterns and victim and perpetrator characteristics that may serve to delineate sexual homicide without relying on disclosure from the perpetrators of the crime. A
second aim of the study was to test the hypothesis that the majority of sexual homicide cases can be captured using Ressler, Burgess, and Douglas’s (1988) definition of sexual homicide.
