0 - Default Title
Description
This handbook of forensic victimology focuses on femi(ni)cide contexts, offering instructional tools for legal and forensic investigation from a transdisciplinary perspective. Drawing from cross-national experiences, particularly in Australia and Mexico, it provides essential resources for identifying, investigating, analyzing, interpreting, and understanding lethal gender-based victimization through physical forensic evidence.
Spanning ten chapters, the book illustrates and develops standards of professional practice from the initial victimization report through specialized procedures, including crime scene processing, medical evidence collection, and entomology. It establishes the functionality and relevance of each stage of forensic investigation, alongside theoretical and legal considerations regarding various femicide contexts, such as intimate partner femicide, femicide-suicide, and child femicide. Additionally, it discusses due diligence standards in forensic investigation and legal considerations to avoid unlawful evidence.
Ideal for professionals in legal and forensic fields addressing gender-based victimization, this volume also serves as a handbook for students in forensic-related areas such as legal and forensic medicine, criminalistics, criminology, and criminal law.
