This study followed recent studies venturing into a victimological path of sexual homicide research. In doing so, it aimed to identify possible distinct overarching groups of victims. A latent class analysis based on statistically significant differences in a census of 107 cases in Israel during 71 years (1948–2019) involving four identified groups of victims suggested a typology of two overarching groups of victims: nonmarginalized victims composed of children and women and socially marginalized or stigmatized victims composed of sex workers and gay men. These two overarching groups of victims display distinct patterns regarding victims, offenders, and modus operandi. Future research and policy recommendations are proposed in line with this study’s observations.

通过主要受害者群体探索性凶杀案

这项研究遵循了最近的研究，冒险进入性凶杀研究的受害者学路径。这样做的目的是确定可能的不同的总体受害者群体。根据以色列 71 年（1948 年至 2019 年）期间对 107 起案件进行的人口普查的统计显着性差异进行的潜在类别分析，涉及四个已确定的受害者群体，提出了两个主要受害者群体的类型：由儿童和妇女组成的非边缘化受害者，以及由社会群体组成的非边缘化受害者。由性工作者和男同性恋者组成的边缘化或污名化受害者。这两个主要的受害者群体在受害者、犯罪者和作案手法方面表现出不同的模式。根据本研究的观察结果提出了未来的研究和政策建议。
