Preferred term

family homicide  

Definition

  • For an unfortunate minority of people, family life consists of a series of personal intrusions, abuses of personal rights, assaults on both body and mind, and even severe trauma—to the extent of homicide within their own homes, committed by members of their own family. There are several forms of family murder, or intrafamilial homicide, the most prevalent being sponsicide/intimaticide, or the killing of one's spouse or intimate partner. [Source: Encyclopedia of Murder and Violent Crime; Family Homicide]
