Abstract:
Case report on a rape-homicide by manual strangulation involving a 59 year old female. The autopsy disclosed a peculiar cross-shaped superficial incised wound of the abdomen, encircled by 12 stab-wounds, furthermore multiple superficial and deep incised wounds of the genitalia. The injury pattern was in good agreement with the psychiatric interpretation of the sexual behaviour as outlet of severe aggressive impulses originating from non-sexual motives.
