Abstract:

Child murder is most common at the hands of a biologic or stepparent. Attempts to better understand filicide, or child murder by a parent, has resulted in several proposed classification schemes. Like most of the research in this area, the proposed classification schemes provide a conceptualization to understand why filicide occurs but have several limitations. Resnick's classification by motive, developed in 1969, is the most widely cited. A child is at highest risk of filicide within the first 24 hours of life. Mothers are responsible for more neonaticides than fathers, but filicides after the first day of life are committed equally by mothers and fathers. In many cases mental illness was present in filicides as well as suicide attempts following the filicidal act. This paper provides an overview of filicide including classification schemes and offender characteristics.

Abstract:

Research on filicide, the killing of a child by a biological or a de facto parent or parents, has largely focused on mothers. However, little is known about how filicidal women compare to filicidal men or whether they differ from women who commit non-filicide murder. The study explores pre-incarceration negative life events and mental health histories of women incarcerated for filicide as compared to men incarcerated for the same offense and women who were incarcerated for non-filicide murder. Extensive gender differences in filicidal parents were found in terms of economic marginalization, physical and sexual abuse, mental health problems. Filicidal women had more mental health problems and lower monthly income than women incarcerated for non-filicide murder, but there were more similarities than differences detected between the two groups of female offenders. The paper concludes with policy recommendations.

Abstract:

The historical examination of filicide in Australia is limited and often focuses on case studies of maternal filicides. Longitudinal trends of Australian filicide offending have focused almost exclusively on the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries. Our study aims to fill a gap in Australian criminological knowledge about filicide. Utilising prison and Supreme Court records from 1860 and 1920, we plot the extent of filicide offending by men and women in Victoria to create a more comprehensive picture of filicide perpetration. This study also tests whether identified motives and risk factors for filicide today can be applied to historical data, to make these data accessible to criminologists studying filicide in the twenty-first century.

Abstract:

Despite the tremendous evidence of the harmful effects of maternal filicide on the lives of offenders, there is a scarcity on studies of their negative emotions and personal wellbeing especially in sub-Saharan Africa. Thus, this study was primarily aimed at assessing the prevalence of negative emotions experienced by filicide mothers and how they were associated with personal wellbeing in Rwanda. With an institutional-based cross-sectional study design, we measured the symptoms of anxiety, anger, shame, guilt, depression and personal well-being in a convenient sample of 55 filicidal mothers (mean age = 26.69; SD = 6.88) who were incarcerated in Nyarugenge prison. SPSS (version 24) was used to compute descriptive, Pearson correlation, independent t-test and regression analyses. The results indicated that the rates of shame were (100%), guilt (98.2%), anxiety (92.7%), depression (92.7%), low happiness and satisfaction with life (81.8%), and anger was (76.4%) in the current sample. Based on age category, there was no significant difference in anger scores, depression, guilt, shame and personal well-being scores between young and adult filicide mothers (p>.05). Young filicide mothers (M = 14.55, SD = 4.03), on the other hand, had higher anxiety scores than adult filicide mothers (M = 11.57, SD = 4.72), t = 2.52, p = .015. Finally, anxiety (β = -.507, t = -3.478, p = .001) and age (β = -.335, t = -2.685, p < .001) were negatively associated with personal well-being. The results emerged from this study highlight that filicide mothers experience substantial negative emotions and poor personal wellbeing regardless of their age category. However, poor personal wellbeing was associated with anxiety and age. Based on these results, mental health professionals should examine their mental state with respect to negative emotions and initiate programs that decrease the emotions as well as increase personal well-being.

Abstract:

Introduction and objectivesPaternal filicide is the killing of a child by his or her father. These offences are rare but when happened they are traumatic to the community and people. Most of published studies focused on child homicide in Westernized developed societies. The aim of this study is to shed light on this rare phenomenon in Kuwait.MethodologyThe psychiatric, socio-demographic profiles and the religious background of 5 filicidal men hospitalized at Kuwait Psychological Medicine Hospital forensic unit between 2001 and 2005 were reviewed. Information was obtained from a number of sources including:1- hospital files2- Police reports,3-newspaper reports.Data including psychiatric, psychological as well as criminological assessment of these cases were analyzed in detail.ResultsThe average age of those men was 35.6 years (SD ± 4.3 years) with a range of 30 to 42 years. Two men have been diagnosed as schizophrenia; one substance related psychotic disorder (they have active psychotic symptoms at the time of offence and committed their offence under these symptoms), another one depression, and the fifth one has no psychiatric disorder. Religious beliefs and conventions colored the offence in two incidents. Eight of the victims (total number 10) were girls. One filicide man killed his spouse during the act.ConclusionsPaternal filicide, while unthinkable crime by most people, is seen in developing as well as in developed societies. The impact of cultural and religious background of the filicidal on the act was discussed.

Abstract:

Les meurtres d’enfants font partie des crimes les plus intolérables. Ils suscitent l’indignation de toute la société d’autant plus lorsqu’ils sont commis par le père ou la mère de l’enfant, se dénominant dès lors sous le terme de « filicide ». Resnick et al. ont distingué en 1969, 5 types de filicides, dont celui de « Filicide-Vengeur », c’est-à-dire un filicide commis par un parent dans une dynamique de vengeance à l’égard de l’autre parent, avec majoritairement le suicide du parent–auteur dans les heures suivant les faits, se qualifiant ainsi de « filicide-suicide ». Nous vous présentons un cas de filicide-suicide vengeur, ayant des atypicités séméiologiques. Il s’agit d’un homme de 38 ans père de deux enfants de 5 et 7 ans en cours de séparation après 10 ans de vie maritale. Il est retrouvé décédé au rez-de-chaussée à son domicile, en partie carbonisé, avec une plaie thoracique autoinfligée (seppuku), les corps de ses deux enfants sont quant à eux découverts dans la chambre conjugale, entièrement calcinés. Nous soulignons une mise en scène étrange avec incendie de l’intégralité du domicile familial et mise en évidence à l’entrée de la maison d’une sacoche noire, à l’abri du feu, contenant des lettres d’adieu adressées à l’entourage proche ainsi que des photographies familiales, évoquant le syndrome de Sardanapale, inspiré d’un Roi illustre qui se suicida en mettant le feu à son palais avec sa famille et ses domestiques. Par l’étude des données médico-légales, des écrits du défunt et des auditions des proches de la famille au cours de l’enquête policière, associée à une revue de la littérature concernant ce type de crime spécifique, nous essayerons de dégager des hypothèses conceptuelles psychiatriques afin de tenter d’expliquer un tel passage à l’acte et d’envisager des actes préventifs. Les homicides infantiles représentent une part non négligeable de la mortalité infantile. Les filicides suicides vengeurs comme celui que nous présentons sont commis exclusivement au cours d’une procédure de séparation entre les parents. Étant donné l’augmentation du nombre de divorces à l’heure actuelle, on peut se demander si l’incidence de ce crime, difficilement compréhensible, n’augmenterait pas significativement au cours des années à venir ?Annexe : L’examen des lieux mettait en évidence une mise en scène du décès avec présence d’une sacoche à l’arrière de la boîte aux lettres du domicile sur laquelle étaient posées deux bougies (Fig. 1). À l’intérieur de la sacoche étaient relevées des photographies de mariage du couple et des enfants, des relevés bancaires et « des lettres d’Adieu » destinés à l’ex-épouse du défunt, aux parents et beaux-parents.

Abstract:

Custody abductions and filicides-suicides are not every day occurrences and typically become ‘media events’. Through an analysis of newspaper representations of two custody abductions and one filicide-suicide, this article examines the role played by fathers’ rights discourse in the construction of the separated father in each case. It argues that fathers’ rights discourse played a central role in the sympathetic portrayal of the two fathers involved in the custody abductions, but was less obviously present in the case of the filicide-suicide. These divergent representations indicate that news media representations are contingent on circumstances and also point to the limits of fathers’ rights discourses in legitimating and neutralising the actions of fathers in pain over the loss of intimate personal relationships. However, the use of a forensic approach to reporting meant that each case remained decontextualised from the pattern of violence and coercive control that typically characterises conflictual separations and custody disputes.

Abstract:

Le meurtre d’un enfant suscite toujours la plus vive émotion et soulève grand nombre d’interrogations, qui plus est quand l’auteur du crime est un parent. Le filicide est décrit comme le meurtre d’un enfant, quel que soit son âge, perpétré par son père ou sa mère. Nous avons réalisé une étude rétrospective descriptive s’intéressant à l’ensemble des patientes femmes admises à l’unité pour malades difficiles Henri-Colin dans les suites d’un passage à l’acte filicide sur une période de 19 années (du 1er janvier 1996 au 31 décembre 2014). Nous avons ainsi inclus 17 patientes, en intégrant non seulement les filicides aboutis, mais aussi les tentatives de filicide (définies par une intentionnalité homicidaire claire, la survie de l’enfant victime dépendant uniquement de facteurs extérieurs). L’objectif de notre étude était de préciser les caractéristiques socio-démographiques et cliniques de ces patientes, ainsi que les aspects criminologiques de leur passage à l’acte. Pour chaque passage à l’acte, le nombre de victimes varie de 1 à 3, leur âge de 6 jours à 16 ans. L’âge moyen des mères est de 32 ans. Les modes opératoires sont divers. Près de deux tiers des patientes sont adressées dans les suites quasi-immédiates de leur passage à l’acte et plus de la moitié sont originaires de détention, les autres étant transférées via des services de secteur ou l’IPPP. Deux catégories diagnostiques sont largement représentées : les troubles de l’humeur (mélancolie délirante notamment) et les troubles délirants chroniques (schizophrénie quasi-exclusivement). Dans de plus rares cas, nous retrouvons un diagnostic de trouble de la personnalité. Notre présentation se portera également sur la période après l’acte, l’évolution des patientes durant leur séjour à l’UMD et leur devenir judiciaire. Enfin, nous tenterons de situer la dynamique de leur acte filicide dans leur parcours biographique et dans leur processus de maternalité.

Abstract:

AbstractA filicide death, meaning the killing of a child by their parent or equivalent guardian, is a tragic event. Sadly, a UK study suggests Australia has the fourth highest rate of filicide among similar developed nations. Since Australian research studies on the incidence of filicide, or indeed on any other aspect of the problem, are limited, it is impossible to know if this finding is correct or not. However, in the last several years more research on filicide has emerged in Australia and by reviewing the recent research in detail, this article develops an integrated analysis of Australian filicide research and contributes to the knowledge bank on Australian filicide that can be used by professionals undertaking practice and research in intervention and prevention. Analysis of the studies shows one child dies at the hands of a parent every fortnight and that this number has not changed for many years. The analysis identifies the profiles of victims and perpetrators. The constellation of circumstances and stressors associated with each of the parental perpetrator groups is discussed, including the perpetrators’ contact with, and mostly unsuccessful use of, services. Based on the analysis, a way forward to prevention is proposed.

Abstract:

Introduction. Filicide is the killing of a son or daughter by a parent. The paper examines interaction between stress and maternal psychopathology that led to the killing. Case Outline. After prolonged conflict with her ex-husband and father of her only child, the respondent committed filicide. Two years before committing filicide, after she had divorced the father of the child, the respondent attempted suicide and had to be hospitalized. On that occasion, she was diagnosed with depressive disorder, which was not treated after hospitalization. Having killed her daughter by cutting her throat, she tried to commit suicide in the same manner, by slitting her throat. During further observation, the respondent was found to suffer from acute psychotic disorder, depressive disorder and histrionic personality disorder. These disorders in interaction with stress do not provide us with an explanation for an unusual and psychopathological motivation analysis of killing the child. Conclusion. Filicide is a violent act, most frequently multifactorial in its nature. Histrionic personality disorder in mother cannot explain the filicide act. Only interactive and dynamic evaluation of this psychiatric disorder in its longitudinal, development aspects and its potentiality to enable the expression of some other psychiatric disorders, especially dissociative states, as well as the importance of prolonged and acute stress and its subjective importance for the individual can shed some more light on the mental state of the mother at the time of filicide.

Abstract:

Little is known about filicide from the perspective of women convicted of the offence. The lack of research is partly attributable to the many difficulties entailed in researching socially marginalised and incarcerated people. Research on filicide engages with socially, culturally, and politically sensitive matters, including gendered social structures and behaviours, legal and ethical complexity, emotionally arousing topics, a rare phenomenon, and hard-to-reach participants. In countries where there is poor surveillance, limited local information, and few resources or experts in filicide, researchers must find innovative ways of overcoming these problems. Here we describe the particular challenges in conducting research on women convicted of filicide in Malaysia, a predominantly Muslim country, when the researchers are based at an Australian university. The persistence, resilience, and creativity required to overcome each problem were justified by the achievement of research that contributes to knowledge and has implications for change in policy and practice.

Abstract:

Dyadic suicides may be committed simultaneously or one after another by two or more people who may or may not have made a prior pact. The perpetrator is usually male and their victims female, and generally their intimate partners, with children less commonly involved. Another distinct type of homicide-suicide is the killing of children by a parent (filicide-suicide). The terms ‘maternal filicide’ or ‘paternal filicide’ are used respectively when the perpetrator is the mother or the father of the victim. We report a rare case of maternal filicide, where the mother drowned her three children and then herself in the same water tank. The case highlights the extreme stress put on a mother of girls in a patriarchal society where there is an overriding expectation and wish for sons. The resulting pressure on this mother for her ‘failure’ caused her to take her own and her children's lives.

Abstract:

The purpose of this comparative and qualitative study was to examine four cases of religiously motivated maternal filicide in Texas for common themes related to patriarchal and religious oppression of women through Gender Performativity and Symbolic Order. A Postmodern Feminist framework showed a gap in research that explores how Christianity-based religious discourse and gender roles impacted mothers who committed filicide. Newspaper articles were coded for religious themes. Identified religious themes included God, commands from male deity, women as bad/flawed, secrecy, and female obedience and male authority. This research provides a unique understanding of the etiology of religiously motivated maternal filicide.

Abstract:

Stepparents commit filicide at higher rates than do genetic parents. According to M. Daly and M. I. Wilson (1994), motivational differences generate differences in the methods by which stepparents and genetic parents kill a child. Using Canadian and British national-level databases, Daly and Wilson (1994) found that stepfathers were more likely than genetic fathers to commit filicide by beating and bludgeoning, arguably revealing stepparental feelings of bitterness and resentment not present to the same degree in genetic fathers. Genetic fathers, in contrast, were more likely than stepfathers to commit filicide by shooting or asphyxiation, methods which often produce a relatively quick and painless death. We sought to replicate and extend these findings using a United States national-level database of over 400,000 homicides. Results replicate those of Daly and Wilson (1994) for genetic fathers and stepfathers. In addition, we identified similar differences in the methods by which stepmothers and genetic mothers committed filicide. Discussion addresses stepparental psychology in light of the current research, limitations of the current study, and future directions for research on this topic.

Abstract:

The victims of filicide in the context of parental separation and divorce have recently been identified as the largest group among all filicide victims in Australia. Nevertheless, research into this group of victims has been sparse, fragmentary and contradictory, with the consequence that confusion has prevailed. This article critically reflects on the existing research on filicide and argues that it has been insufficiently comprehensive and reliable and, therefore, is not suitable for use as a knowledge base for professional individuals, programmatic and policy interventions, and prevention. The article suggests ways of developing more reliable research for knowledge building and details the data developed so far that underpins their recommendations for a national programme of research.

Abstract:

This paper discusses a case of maternal homicide which occurred in the course of a major affective disorder. The relationship between mental illness and criminality is reviewed with a particular emphasis on affective disorder in relation to filicide. A number of significant issues are dealt with including consequences of failure to elicit positive family history of affective disorder, suicide and filicide. Indeed, a history of familial double filicide raises the question of possible hereditary influences. The significance of hypochondriacal symptomatology in the course of the illness and the role of steroids in precipitating or aggravating a psychotic depression also need to be explored. It primarily addresses the importance of prevention and recognition of risk factors associated with child murder committed by depressed parents.

Abstract:

This review examines the association between the perinatal period and thoughts and behaviours of neonaticide, infanticide, and filicide, highlighting mothers' risk factors. A literature search was conducted on PubMed, PsycINFO, and ScienceDirect, with 2,957 articles screened and 13 determined as eligible for inclusion. Inclusion criteria were: 1) studies on neonaticide, infanticide and filicide; 2) studies conducted on women; 3) studies with perinatal population; 4) original, peer-reviewed studies; 5) studies written in English or Italian language. Single-case reports and qualitative studies were excluded, as were those studies written in any other language, and any studies for which the full-text version could not be obtained (i.e. conference abstracts). Two reviewers independently reviewed titles and abstracts, reviewed relevant articles' full text, and extracted the data. Several individuals and socio-environmental risk factors were identified for neonaticide, infanticide, and filicide during the perinatal period, highlighting the importance of paying particular attention to the mother's well-being in this critical phase. Women who committed neonaticide, infanticide, or filicide faced a variety of challenges in their lives. Such life events might prompt mental health professionals to address the possibility of harmful acts in their patients.

Abstract:

Filicide, a highly traumatic act, requires very specific meanings. In the international literature a large proportion of cases are correlated with maternal mental pathology. The case we report describes a tragic filicide by a mother with no psychiatric history. This acting out reveals schizophrenia. Thus, the main objective of our work is to emphasize the need for the diagnosis and early management of psychiatric illness, in particular in pregnant women in order to provide violence oneself or to others and to raise the problem of social prevention for these patients and their children and families.

Abstract:

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to explore the treatment experiences of adult male perpetrators of filicide within prison therapeutic communities (TCs). Design/methodology/approach Participants took part in semi-structured interviews in order to capture their treatment experiences. The data were analysed using interpretative phenomenological analysis. Findings Five superordinate themes (therapeutic process; acceptance; insight; relationships; and barriers) and ten subordinate themes were identified. All themes were pertinent to understanding the participants’ experiences of TC treatment. The discussion provides reflections about the findings, contrasts them to psychological literature, along with suggestions for clinical practice and future research. Originality/value This research addressed a dearth of published literature within the area of male filicide and available treatment interventions.

Abstract:

In many societies, girls are more often killed by their parents than boys. However, not much of this is known in contemporary societies. This study had two main objectives. The first was to assess whether the number of boy and girl victims of maternal filicide differ in the literature from 1959 to 2000. Using two scientific databases, Medline and PsycINFO, 20 texts were pertinent. The second objective was to identify the variables that differentiate the mothers who killed a son and those who killed a daughter in a sample of 42 women from the province of Québec (Canada). Analysis of the data for the first part indicate that the numbers of sons and daughters killed by their mothers are similar in the literature. For the second aim no significant differences were noted between the women who killed a son and those who killed a daughter for 30 variables studied, e.g., motivation, method of killing, age of the victims, etc.

Abstract:

Most methanol poisonings are accidental. We present a rare case of filicide–suicide, where a youth was killed by methanol poisoning and his parents then committed suicide by jumping in front of a running train. The father’s suicide note explains the crime.
