Preventing Domestic Homicides: Lessons Learned from Tragedies
focuses on the diverse nature of domestic homicides and what has
been learned about the most effective prevention strategies from
emerging research and the work of domestic violence death review
committees in Canada, the US, the UK, NZ and AU. Each chapter
focuses on different populations-specifically older women, youth
dating relationships, indigenous women, immigrant and refugee
populations, rural/remote communities, same-sex relationships,
homicides with police & military, domestic homicide in the
workplace, and children killed in the context of domestic violence.
Topics cover current research, risk factors, and include case
studies from domestic homicide review committees. Cases are
summarized regarding major themes and recommendations, such as
public awareness, professional training, risk assessment,
intervention and collaboration amongst service systems. Written for
academic and domestic violence researchers in sociology,
criminology, psychology and psychiatry by global contributors with
on-the-ground domestic homicide experience.
