Abstract
These results indicate that there are two distinct groups of female IPV homicides, and recognizing this distinction may allow for the development of more effective trauma prevention strategies. Homicide-suicides showed a more premeditated pattern while homicide alone suggested a crime of passion, with a smaller proportion of firearm deaths and higher rates of positive toxicology findings and preceding conflict in the latter group.
