4.9/5 (32188 ratings)

Description:Criminal Dismemberment is the first book to examine dismemberment as a phenomenon in the context of criminal acts. While the number of such dismemberment cases in any given country is often small, the notion of dismemberment captures the imagination, often leading many to question the motivations as to why anyone would perpetrate such an unnatural act.The act of dismemberment, in its original form, referred to cutting, tearing, pulling, wrenching or otherwise separating the limbs from a living being as a form a capital punishment. In today's society, it has become associated most frequently with the criminal act of sectioning the remains of the dead in an attempt to conceal the death and dispose of the remains or make the process of identification of the deceased more difficult to achieve.Drawing on expertise from leading forensic anthropologists, pathologists, and forensic materials engineers, the book brings together much of the literature on criminal dismemberment--viewing it from the investigative, forensic, and social science perspectives. Key features include:Psychological analysis of the perpetratorDetailed examination of case studies, anonymized from recent investigationsDifficulties encountered in a dismemberment investigationTool mark analysis, including knives and saws, accompanied by over 120 detailed, full-color illustrations and photographsServes as a unique and useful resource in the investigation of dismembered human remainsThe diverse backgrounds of the contributors offers a thorough account of such topics as the history of dismemberment, the forensic pathology in such cases, the importance of developing a common vocabulary in terminology used, the legal admissibility in dismemberment cases.
