1Department of Criminology and Criminal Justice, Florida Atlantic University, Davie, FL 33314, USA. adobrin@fau.edu
Objective:
To determine whether criminal offending increases an individual's risk of becoming a homicide victim.
Methods:
A case-control design was used to compare the arrest and demographic attributes of 105 homicide victims to 105 nonvictims. Bi- and multivariate logistic regression models were used to determine differences between the two groups.
Results:
Significant differences were found between homicide victims and nonvictims using different measures of arrest.
Conclusions:
The field of public health needs to take a greater interest in preventing violence, and by recognizing criminal offending as a risk factor to subsequent victimization, it can attempt to reduce fatal encounters.
