Drawn from case examples of incidents from around the world,
Targeted Violence: A Statistical and Tactical Analysis of
Assassinations, Contract Killings, and Kidnappings is the most
complete resource of information on the attack methodologies,
tactics used, and groups responsible for targeted killings and
kidnappings. The author, a former SWAT and JTTF team member-whose
experience includes providing protection to diplomats, high-ranking
military personnel, prosecutors, and organized crime
informants-presents a wealth of global statistics on
assassinations, contract killings, and kidnappings that have
occurred from 1950 to the present. Leaving no stone unturned, the
book breaks down the various incidents of targeted violence by
region, country, month, day of the week, and time of day. It
reports on likely locations for each type of attack, success rates,
who is likely to initiate the attacks, and who they are most likely
to target. The book's easy-to-follow format allows readers,
experienced or not in personal protective work, to determine the
types of attacks known to have occurred in any region. This
complete reference includes 35 case studies that examine attacks on
motorcades and pedestrians dating back to 1973-highlighting the
lessons to be learned from each example. It analyzes the modus
operandi of individual assailants and groups in order to determine
commonalities between targeted victims and why certain groups tend
to target a specific type of individual. The text concludes with a
chapter on victimology. Just like anyone, assassins and hit men
fall into routines and can become creatures of habit. By studying
and understanding the collection of historical information
contained in these pages, security, military, and law enforcement
professionals responsible for providing protection will be better
prepared to identify potential threats and develop the tactics
needed to thwart such attacks.
