Abstract:

Under severe fire weather conditions arson is believed to be the primary cause of large wildland fires in southern California. Wildland fire suppression personnel and the public use the the expression "This weather brings out the arsonists" to indicate their awareness of the high potential for large arson-caused fires under these conditions. To determine the accuracy of this statement, fire occurrence and weather data were analyzed for four southern California National Forests for a 10-year period (1975–1984). The results showed that the proportion of arson and non-arson person-caused fires remained the same under most fire-danger conditions; however, a much higher percentage of arson fires became large fires when fire danger was severe. Furthermore, the timing of the arsonist contributed to the frequent occurrence of large arson fires. The data presented here refute the idea that most arson fires occur under severe weather conditions and at the same time-validate the utility of maintaining arson prevention programs during most weather conditions.

Abstract:

One of the most important elements of the criminological characteristic of intentional destruction of property through arson is the quantitative and qualitative indicators of the commission of this crime, which include the level, structure, dynamics and geography. A full characterization of intentional destruction or damage to property by arson requires consideration of a number of criminological elements, including quantitative and qualitative indicators of intentional destruction or damage to property by arson, characterization of the offender committing intentional destruction or damage to property by arson, cause damage to property by arson. The article looks at statistics from 1960-2018 that reflect the level of crimes related to the deliberate destruction or damage to another's property by arson. The analysis is based on official statistics of the Interior Ministry of Ukraine. The focus is on the dynamics of reported crimes. The study of statistics from 1960-2018 on the deliberate destruction or damage of another's property by means of arson allows to obtain a considerable amount of useful information about the mechanism and means of arson, about the conditions and circumstances under which it was prepared and committed, the identity of the offender, etc. Identifying typical methods of arson can be the basis for developing versions, determining the direction of the investigation and the most appropriate ways to search the offender, establishing and further eliminating the circumstances contributing to the arson. The purpose and purpose of this article is to investigate statistics from 1960-2018 that reflect the results of the activities of law enforcement agencies in the detection of crimes related to the deliberate destruction and damage to property, including those committed by arson. The overall crime rate can be traced to the tables provided in the article. Investigations can form the basis of law-making activities, as well as serve as a basis for further scientific inquiries concerning the criminal-law characteristics of intentional destruction or damage to property.

Abstract:

Research into the determining factors in arson cases has traditionally focused on factors linked to the characteristics of the burned building. One of our basic hypotheses is that deliberately set fires also have an underlying economic motivation. In this case, the present study confirms the hypothesis that there appears to be an indisputable link between the unemployment rate and mortgage burdens and arson rates, regardless of the phase of the economic cycle in which the arson occurs. Moreover, the study corroborates the idea that increased surveillance is necessary in areas presenting a higher risk of fraud and having a specific socioeconomic and financial profile. A lower incidence of arson and the improvement of insurers ' ability to predict losses due to arson could lead to a significant reduction in the number of claims, and consequently, in the amount of premiums. By looking more specifically at the economic motivations influencing arson throughout the different phases of the economic cycle, this study evokes the establisment of a forecasting system that would allow insurance companies to identify the areas of Montreal that present a higher risk level for arson, thus allowing them to establish their rates in a more equitable manner.

Abstract:

Arson crimes are associated with fire where establishment of crime depends on intent and motive together with circumstantial evidence making a challenging job for scene of crime investigators. The jumble of problems at arson crime location needs presence of mind during forensic examination keeping in view of sensitivity of the case. The importance of forensics to tract down crime exhibits and their struggle to save trace evidences in arson cases is decisive as often the scene of crime is visited by numerous people including individuals needed to douse the fire. It is therefore necessary to document and photograph the scene of crime. The various approaches to tackle the arson crime are widely known, documented and implemented by forensic scientists but still every crime scene is thought-provoking. This article draws attention towards well planned and structured arson crime committed to evade evidences and the challenges faced by forensic community to reveal scientific evidence. A complex case of charred body inside burnt car in a secluded street was examined by forensic scientist to unearth concrete evidences reproducible in court of law. The article concludes by discussing the challenges most notably around the arson debris, importance of surrounding evidences, pattern of fire and thus evaluating crime scene for joining the dots of evidence justifying the role of forensic science.

Abstract:

Arson is a recurrent problem in Kenyan secondary schools. Although school violence – notably gun violence – has received significant attention, there has been less academic attention paid to school arson, especially in Africa. This study explores how newspaper reports in Kenya framed school arson and links these framings to broader questions about the understanding and production of Kenyan identity. A thematic analysis of 334 newspaper reports revealed multiple understandings of school arson. Print media discourse afforded journalists an opportunity to make a commentary on the post-colonial globalized Kenyan society. We discuss the implications of this for understanding post-colonial media in Africa.

Abstract:

In the last 20 years there has been global increase of episodes of school unrests characterized with violence and arson attacks. They resulted to destruction of schools’ property and death. Arson persists with latest cases seen in 2021. Past studies have not focused on social and cultural aspects in learning institutions as possible causes of arson. The study focused on the application of rules and regulations on students’ involvement in Arson at public boarding Secondary schools in Migori County. Descriptive Cross-sectional survey design. It involved 380 students of form 3 and 4 from 28 public boarding secondary schools which had experienced Arson from 2017 to 2020; and 28 KII’s. Probability sampling techniques were used to arrive at the respondents, KII’s were purposively selected. Questionnaires and FGDs were used on main respondents; and interview schedule for KIIs. Quantitative data was analyzed using Pearson’s product moment correlations and presented in graphs, tables and charts. Qualitative data was analyzed thematically. It was revealed that utilization of school rules and regulations had a positive significant relationship (r= .447, p<.05) with students’ involvement in arson. Further, informal discussion on school rules and regulations had a positive significant relationship (r= .487, p<.05) with students’ involvement in arson. The study recommends that the ministry of education should outline the guidelines for formulation of school rules and regulations

Abstract:

This thesis explores risk factors for recidivistic arson in adult offenders. Chapter one provides an introduction to the characteristics of adult firesetters and theoretical approaches to understanding their behaviour. Chapter two provides a critique of the Fire Setting Scale (FSS) in terms of its psychometric properties and concludes that the FSS shows promise as a psychometric measure of fire interest and antisociality associated with firesetting in the general population. Chapter three contains a systematic review of the evidence base relating to risk factors for recidivistic arson in adult offenders. Standardised effect sizes are calculated and the data synthesised to identify risk factors with varying strengths of empirical support. The 15 studies reviewed varied in quality, contained few female subjects, and often studied psychiatric rather than wider criminal justice populations. The empirical research presented in Chapter four consists of a retrospective case-control study comparing a large sample of recidivist and first-time arsonists on a range of variables. Separate analyses for female and male subjects revealed differences in risk factors. Logistic regression was used to build predictive models of arson recidivism which were then operationalised into gender-specific risk prediction tools. Theoretical and clinical implications of the thesis are discussed in Chapter five, and a preliminary model of arson recidivism is proposed.

Abstract:

Questa tesi si occupa di analizzare il sistema dell’arte contemporanea francese soffermandosi sui Centri nazionali d’arte contemporanea francesi (CNAC) e in particolar modo tratta il caso specifico del Centre national d’art contemporain, Villa Arson di Nizza. Partendo dunque dallo studio del processo di sviluppo del sistema dell’arte contemporanea francese, la tesi individua le tappe attraverso le quali lo stato sia arrivato a creare questi CNAC. Nello specifico, il primo capitolo si concentra sulla nascita dei Salon ufficiali, sui mutamenti avvenuti nel mercato dell’arte nel corso del Novecento, fino ad arrivare alla creazione dei primi musei d’arte contemporanea in Europa. Il secondo capitolo si occupa di determinare le differenti politiche culturali francesi attuate, tra gli anni ’60 ed ’80, che hanno permesso la creazione dei centri nazionali d’arte contemporanea ed inoltre gli organismi gestionali statali che garantiscono il sostegno ai CNAC. Nella trattazione del caso studio di Villa Arson viene delineato sia l’aspetto socio-politico della sua trasformazione in centro, sia quello storico-artistico legato alla scena artistica in Costa Azzurra, anche attraverso l’analisi di alcuni casi di studio legati alle esposizioni passate. Nel capitolo conclusivo ci si sofferma sugli aspetti di management analizzando l’offerta didattica e formativa di Villa Arson tentando un confronto tra la tipologia dei CNAC e le strutture di musei contemporanei italiani o internazionali.

Abstract:

Background: Despite its significance as a costly and destructive criminal behaviour, there appears to be some consensus that we know relatively little about arson compared to many other areas of criminal behaviour. Moreover, most existing theory and research into arson has come from the USA, and has tended to concentrate on profiling the characteristics of offenders, rather than investigating, at least in any detail, features of the environment that may influence their behaviour. Aim: The main aim and overarching theme of the current thesis was, therefore, to describe and evaluate some of the main demographic and biographical characteristics, offence related behaviours, and environmental factors associated with arson, in a sample of arson offenders from a European country. Methods: Six empirical studies were conducted, each based on cases drawn from a sample of 746 cases committed by 540 offenders from Denmark between 2002 and 2010 in two police districts, one rural and one urban. Studies 1 and 2 examined a range of demographic and biographical characteristics of arson offenders (such as, gender and age); Studies 3 and 4 covered offence related behaviours (such as selection of targets, and travel distances), and employed regression analyses to look specifically at how these were predicted by other offence related and demographic and biographical variables. Study 5 then investigated the prediction of serial offending as an indicator of arson recidivism using the above demographic and biographical variables and offence related variables. Finally, Study 6 attempted to employ a new approach, via Google Earth, to examine the influence of a range of architectural and structural features of the environment on arson offending; these included 2 targets, presence of high rise buildings, territorial markers, population density and maintenance. Results and Discussion: Findings supported previous literature in identifying the typical arsonist as a young male offender; however, the results further suggested three possible divergent trends in the data corresponding to different categories of arson offender: 1) a more frequent opportunistic arsonist; 2) a less frequent, but more serious, often more persistent serial offender, and 3) a category of mainly female offenders who are less likely to be serial offenders but who may be reacting to dysfunctional home environments. Importantly, in relation to the latter finding, a bimodal peak in age emerged in the subgroup of female offenders, identifying a younger group of female offenders in their mid and late teen years and an older subgroup of female offenders in their late thirties and early forties. Another notable finding was that young male offenders who were not at school were particularly at risk for becoming serial offenders, suggesting that young males not attending school could be targeted in terms of prevention of persistent arson. Also, as predictors of arson, a number of environmental variables were significant and in line with predictions (for example, arson was more prevalant where there were vacant buildings, and very significantly, where the nearest police station was farthest away), but others were significant in a direction opposite to predictions (high building density was associated with lower rates of arson), and some potentially important predicted relationships failed to emerge as significant predictors (such as territorial markers). In addition to the above, two other major findings emerged. First, whilst it was possible be to predict crime scene behaviours from other crime scene behaviours with some degree of accuracy, and, similarly, demographic behaviours (like previous arson) from other demographic factors, predicting crime scene behaviours from demographic factors and vice versa proved to be considerably more difficult. In contrast, in terms of having 3 maximum impact on arson rates the environmental variables considered here did a relatively good job of predicting the presence of arson. A number of limitations and implications are also discussed. Conclusion Considering the results as a whole, notwithstanding some success in predicting arson from demographic and offence related variables, it is concluded that an extension of the kind of environmental approach explored in this thesis could potentially be used for developing environmental schemes for arson prevention that might be considerably easier to apply, and perhaps even more effective in reducing arson, than targeting 'at risk' groups of individuals.

Abstract:

The influences that crime control, due process factors, and individual demographic characteristics have on the criminal trial outcomes of accused arsonists was unknown. Absent this knowledge, it was not clear if public policy ensures justice for the accused, particularly for the disadvantaged. The purpose of this quasi-experimental study was to investigate, using Packer's due process and crime control model as the theoretical framework, the relationship between time to trial, number of defense and prosecution witnesses, access to fire origin and cause experts, legal representation type, age, race, education, and gender and criminal arson case outcomes. A sample size of 165 archival court records of those accused of arson from 2011-2015 were analyzed using Packer. According to the results of the logistic regression models, there was a significant relationship (p < .05) between trial outcomes and the use of fact witnesses by the defense and by the prosecution.This relationship moved the pendulum toward crime control for the selected population. The ordered logistic model explained 6.9% of the variation in the criminal case outcomes. Policymakers can use the results of this study to inform criminal justice policy and to prioritize funding to assure fairness and social justice for the accused. Arson defendants and their counsel can use the results to prepare their defense to assure their social justice while prosecutors can use the results to better inform their decisions to assure the legal and factual guilt of the defendant. Future research is needed to provide a clearer understanding of the role that other variables play in the outcome for the population.

Abstract:

Opportunity theories of crime suggest that crime occurs in specific spatio-temporal patterns due to an increase in opportunity and a decrease in risk. Financially-motivated crimes have been demonstrated to be influenced by the economy. From an opportunity perspective this is likely to be due to changes in an individual’s financial circumstances leading them to view the benefits of crime to outweigh the risks. To extend this idea, this research is examining whether financial hardship influences the perceived costs/benefits associated with crimes such as vehicle arson committed with the intention of escaping debt. From 1997-2003, vehicle fires in Surrey were occurring at a rate more than double the national average and many of these were transpiring under suspicious circumstances. Using an opportunity theory framework, this study aims to examine the spatio-temporal patterns of vehicle arson and discover how it was effected by changes in economic conditions. The data for this study were obtained from Surrey Fire Services and contain information on all fires that involved a vehicle in Surrey from 2000-2015. The vehicle fire data were separated into arson and non-arson groups depending on their recorded act/omission and various economic variables were considered to represent the market. Vehicle arson trends were examined over the study period along with motor vehicle theft data, economic variables and the non-arson fire data. Relative to the unsuspicious vehicle fires, vehicle arson was significantly more likely to occur at night in areas with little surveillance. Results indicate that vehicle arson increases during times of economic downturn. Vehicle arson significantly increased following a rise in unemployment and interest rates whilst non-arson vehicle fires remained stable throughout the study period thus supporting an opportunity theory of crime. Results are discussed with relation to situational crime prevention policy and practice.

Abstract:

This thesis examines the effects of age, time period, and cohort on arrest rates for two specific offenses: larceny-theft and arson. The required longitudinal data were gathered from the Uniform Crime Reports from 1965 through 1984. The analytical procedures used in this study include the dummy variable conversion of the correlation and the multiple regression. We found that the more frequently one is arrested for larceny-theft and arson, the more likely one will be arrested for other offenses. This was more the case for arson than for larceny-theft. The inverse relationship between age and arrest rates for larceny-theft and arson combined show younger persons (15-34) were more prone to be arrested than older ones (35-64). These findings are in agreement with those found in other studies. The regression analysis supported hypotheses 1 and 3, i.e., age and cohort had a signficiant impact on the arrest rates for both larceny-theft and arson. Hypothesis 2 was not confirmed, i.e., time period did not have a signficiant effect on arrest rates for larceny-theft or arson.

Abstract:

This work was supported by the Agency for Research and Development under the contract no. APVV-17-0217.Every year fires cause big damage to society, property, environment, buildings and infrastructure and pose a threat to life and health of persons in endangered areas. In most cases arson serves as insurance fraud or cover up any crime (e.g. robbery, embezzlement). However, there may be other reasons, e.g. in the case of the Commission of the European Union, the use of the product in envy, hatred, threats, blackmail, competitive struggle. Or social, political, or ethnic differences. In several cases, arson was used as a so-called 'arson attack'. The false flag, that is, the arsonist used the fire to accuse his enemy and took advantage of the wave of recourse that subsequently was raised against him. The circumstances of the cause and the fire are under investigation. After extinguishing a fire, it is standard procedure to seek and then either confirm, refute or further examine the possibility of intentional formation. In most countries of the world, arson is treated as a crime and seen as harming a stranger or a threat to life.

Abstract:

For the past several years, the NIJ Technology Working Group’s Operational Requirements for Fire and Arson Investigation have included several scientific research needs that require improved knowledge of properties of materials that are common in the built environment, and therefore likely to be involved in a fire scene. The specific areas of research include: adequate materials data inputs for accurate computer models, understanding the effect of materials properties on the development and interpretation of fire patterns, and evaluation of incident heat flux profiles to walls and neighboring items in support of fire model validation. Each of the three aforementioned research topics rely, in part, on accurate knowledge of the physical conditions of a material prior to the fire, how the material will respond to the exposure of heat, and how it will perform once it has ignited. The project described herein has made advancements in terms of collecting experimental data and property information on a multitude of materials commonly encountered in the built environment for the purpose of making the data publicly available and easily accessible to fire investigators, fire protection engineers, and fire researchers.

Abstract:

The NIJ Technology Working Group’s Operational Requirements (TWG ORs) for Fire and Arson Investigation have included several scientific research needs that require knowledge of the thermophysical properties of materials that are common in the built environment, and therefore likely to be involved in a fire scene. The specific areas of research include: adequate materials property data inputs for accurate computer models, understanding the effect of materials properties on the development and interpretation of fire patterns, and evaluation of incident heat flux profiles to walls and neighboring items in support of fire model validation. These topics certainly address, in a concise way, many of the gaps that limit the analysis capability of fire investigators and engineers. Each of the three aforementioned research topics rely, in part, on accurate knowledge of the physical conditions of a material prior to the fire, how the material will respond to the exposure of heat, and how it will perform once it has ignited. This general information is required to visually assess a fire scene. The same information is needed by investigators to estimate the evolution and consequences of a fire incident using a computer model. Data sources that are currently most commonly used to determine the required properties and model inputs are outdated and incomplete. This report includes the literature review used to provide a technical approach to developing a materials database for use in fire investigations and computational fire models. A summary of the input from the project technical panel is presented which guided the initial selection of materials to be included in the database as well as the selection of test measurements.

Abstract:

Solar collectors are the core components of solar district heating plants. Annual solar heat yield of solar heating plants on average is around 400-500 kWh/m2 in Denmark. Most solar collectors in the large solar district heating plants in Denmark are ground-mounted flat plate collectors. Arcon-Sunmark A/S is the main manufacturer of the large flat plate collectors for district heating in Denmark. Arcon-Sunmark A/S has installed more than 80% of the world’s large solar heating plants connected to district heating networks.
