Sex-related homicides claim victims from all walks of life, be they men or women, lovers or strangers, elders or children. They are some of the most horrific crimes imaginable, and unlike robbery-homicides or drug-related murders, the motives behind them are often not clear-cut.

For all homicide cases, professional detectives must have practical experience in homicide investigation, but to solve sex-related murders they must also possess a keen understanding of human behavior patterns and human sexuality. With 38 years of practical and clinical experience author Vernon J. Geberth has that understanding.

The renowned investigator and author of Practical Homicide Investigation, Geberth now shares his expertise related to the unique characteristics of sex-related homicides. In Sex-Related Homicide and Death Investigation: Practical and Clinical Perspectives he:

" Comprehensively discusses human sexuality and sexual deviance
" Analyzes the significance of fantasy
" Presents the crucial dynamics involved in the search of the crime scene
" Introduces the latest information on the application of DNA technology to sex crimes
" Includes investigative checklists, clinical references, and case examples
" Analyzes the typology of offenders and reveals how to determine the "signature aspect"
" Provides an understanding of the significance of sexual offenders' behaviors

The mission of every homicide investigator is to bring justice to the deceased and their surviving family. Sex-Related Homicide and Death Investigation: Practical and Clinical Perspectives stresses the basics, indicates the practicalities of certain investigative techniques, and provides you with patterns upon which to build a solid foundation for a prosecutable case.
