The author first reviews the various psychiatric and criminologic classifications of homicides. Then, he examines the FBI classification and points to the fact that the existence or absence of mental disturbances is only rarely mentioned in the description of each category of homicide. Finally, he proposes his own classification of pathologic homicides comprising eight categories: impulsive, crime of passion, sexual, depressive, non delusional psychotic, delusional psychotic, of organic cause, otherwise non-classifiable.
