“…In addition, clinical information was based on clinical judgment rather than on standardized assessment. Furthermore, our analysis did not include cases of homicide-suicide; these cases have been reported elsewhere and were excluded because they were not convicted (37). We were also unable to analyze the prevalence of a number of previously identified risk factors, including childhood abuse, domestic violence, cohabitation versus marriage, and gun ownership (11,12,36).…”

A significant minority of adult domestic homicide perpetrators had symptoms of mental illness at the time of the homicide. Most perpetrators, including those with mental illnesses, were not in contact with mental health services in the year before the offense. Risk reduction could be achieved through initiatives that encourage individuals with mental health problems to access mental health services and that develop closer interagency working, including between mental health services, police, social services, and domestic violence services.

Frameworks that integrate personality traits; comorbid problems such as substance misuse, mood disorders and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) symptoms; motivation for offending; maladaptive cognitions; beliefs and attitudes; anger and arousal; and situational factors are helpful when considering risk assessment, risk management and treatment. More empirical research is needed to test these theories.
