“…Given these potential limitations, however, future research should consider these relationships in other data sources not based solely on official records. Recent research has demonstrated the validity and reliability of data based on victim and media reports (e.g., Levin & Reichelmann, 2015; Ruback, Gladfelter, & Lantz, 2018), as well as open-source data like the Extremist Crime Database (ECDB; Chermak, Freilich, Parkin, & Lynch, 2012; Klein & Allison, 2018), and future research should consider the use of these data sources to examine the role of groups in hate crime offending.…”

Hate Crimes Hurt More, but so Do Co-Offenders: Separating the Influence of Co-Offending and Bias on Hate-Motivated Physical Injury

One of the primary motivations for hate crime laws is that hate crimes “hurt more.” But hate crimes are often committed by groups, and research indicates that crimes committed by groups are also more violent than other crimes. This research focuses on one type of harm, physical injury, asking, are hate crimes more violent because they involve co-offenders or because of the bias motivation behind the incident? Results using data from the National Incident-Based Reporting System (NIBRS) indicate that hate crimes are positively associated with serious injury, but that this association is partially driven by co-offenders. More importantly, co-offending moderates this relationship: Incidents involving bias and co-offending are especially violent. Anti-sexual orientation incidents were an exception to this pattern, however, and are likely to be violent regardless of co-offending. These results suggest that hate crimes do hurt more, but that this relationship is partially attributable to the influence of co-offenders.

“…The topic of stranger-perpetrated homicide has been extensively evaluated in prior research. Previous studies conducted in the United States have found that homicides between strangers were more likely to be committed by men (e.g., Cooper & Smith, 2011; Muftić & Baumann, 2012; Zahn & Sagi, 1987), members of racial and ethnic minorities (e.g., Osho & Williams, 2013), ideologically motivated offenders (Gruenewald & Pridemore, 2012; Klein & Allison, 2018), in a public location (e.g., Zahn & Sagi, 1987), and using a firearm (e.g., K.

Exploration of Crime Scene Characteristics in Cyber-Related Homicides

Despite the alarming nature of homicides in which the offender meets the victim online, or cyber-initiated homicides, little empirical attention has been devoted to this phenomenon. The present study was designed to explore the behavioral patterns found prior to and during a cyber-initiated homicide event. Data on 61 homicide cases from various countries were collected through news media and legal sources. Smallest space analysis revealed that cyber homicides were characterized by four distinct themes: excessive violence, fatal escalation, crime-related incidents, and predatory behavior. Implications of the findings and avenues for future research are discussed.

“…For instance, studies have integrated open-source extremist homicide data from the U.S. Extremist Crime Database and the FBI's Uniform Crime Reporting System's Supplementary Homicide Reports to examine how extremist homicide offenders, victims, and situations compare with those of traditional homicides (Gruenewald, 2011;Gruenewald & Pridemore, 2012;Klein & Allison, 2017). Similarly, researchers have combined U.S. terrorism data collected by the Profiles of Individual Radicalization in the United States (PIRUS) data with data from the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth to compare violent political extremists with gang members (Pyrooz, LaFree, Decker, & James, 2017).…”
