Body transportation is defined as moving the body of the victim from the scene of a homicide to another location. We analyzed data on 513 South Korean homicide cases with convictions to compare 104 homicides involving the transportation of victims' bodies with 409 homicides that did not. Offenders who transported their victims' bodies were significantly younger and more likely to be related to the victims and were less likely to use sharp instruments and more likely to use blunt instruments or strangle the victims than offenders who did not. Victims of homicide involving body transportation were more likely to suffer injuries to the neck and head and less likely to suffer injuries to the torso. Finally, offenders who transported victims' bodies were more likely to have planned the offense and destroyed evidence. The present findings have practical implications for police investigations.
尸体转移被定义为将凶杀案受害者的尸体从案发现场转移到另一个地点。我们分析了513起韩国已定罪的凶杀案数据，以比较104起涉及转移受害者尸体的凶杀案和409起未涉及的凶杀案。与未转移受害者尸体的犯罪者相比，转移尸体的犯罪者明显更年轻，与受害者的关系更密切，使用锐器的可能性更小，使用钝器或勒死受害者的可能性更大。涉及尸体转移的凶杀案受害者颈部和头部受伤的可能性更大，躯干受伤的可能性更小。最后，转移受害者尸体的犯罪者更有可能事先策划犯罪并销毁证据。本研究结果对警方调查具有实际意义。
