This book examines the role of deceptive tactics in the criminal
victimization process, showing how various forms of manipulative
aggression can help disguise dangerous advances. The author
approaches crime victimization as the final stage in a purposeful,
predictable, dynamic, and progressively dangerous process involving
interactions between the target and the aggressor. As they prepare
for the attack, aggressors may attempt to distract, confuse, and
reduce target resistance. While these tactics provide aggressors
certain advantages, they can be recognized, anticipated, and
managed. By presenting a framework to identify behaviors of concern
early in the process, Kenny shows how preventative action can be
taken. Proactive intervention may cause aggressors to withdraw
before they are fully committed to and confident in their ability
to be successful. Those who take steps to reduce vulnerabilities,
limit risky behaviors, and avoid dangerous situations can help
prevent themselves from being victimized.
