Information on sexual homicide offenders is limited. The current study estimates the rate of sexual homicides in Finland and analyses sociodemographic characteristics, crime history, life course development, psychopathy, and psychopathology in sexual homicide and nonsexual homicide offenders. Crime reports and forensic examination reports of all offenders subjected to forensic examination and convicted for homicide in 1995-2004 (n=676) were retrospectively analyzed for offence and offender variables and scored with the Psychopathy Checklist-Revised. Eighteen sexual homicides (2.8%) were identified. Co-offending, strangulation and disposal of the body were more frequent crime scene variables in sexual than nonsexual homicides. Mental health problems and sexual abuse in childhood and sexual crime history were significantly more frequent in sexual than nonsexual homicide offenders. Over half of the sexual homicide offenders were psychopathic: compared to nonsexual homicide offenders they scored significantly higher on interpersonal and affective features of psychopathy.
关于性杀人犯罪者的信息有限。当前的研究估算了芬兰的性杀人犯罪率，并分析了性杀人犯罪者和非性杀人犯罪者的社会人口学特征、犯罪史、生命历程发展、精神病态及精神病理学情况。对1995年至2004年间所有接受法医检查并因杀人罪被定罪的犯罪者（n = 676）的犯罪报告和法医检查报告进行回顾性分析，以获取犯罪及犯罪者变量信息，并使用修订版精神病态量表进行评分。共确定了18起性杀人案件（2.8%）。与非性杀人案件相比，共同犯罪、勒颈和尸体处理在性杀人案件中是更常见的犯罪现场变量。性杀人犯罪者中，童年时期的心理健康问题、性虐待及性犯罪史明显比非性杀人犯罪者更为常见。超过半数的性杀人犯罪者存在精神病态：与非性杀人犯罪者相比，他们在精神病态的人际和情感特征方面得分显著更高。
