CRITICAL CHARACTERISTICS OF MALE
Difficulties that have limited research on serial murder (i.e., definition, data, and conceptual framework) are addressed by the current study. Hickey's Trauma-Control Model is utilized as a conceptual framework that is particularly helpful when sexual activity is involved. This study provides a rich description of male perpetrator characteristics (criminal history, age, and ethnicity), killing career characteristics (number of v&tims, length of career, solo or team killer, venue, weapons, and murder rate), and victim characteristics (relationship to killer and victim sex). Relationships among these characteristics are also examined.
