Crime Classification Manual Part I Chapter 5 29

A STANDARD SYSTEM FOR INVESTIGATING AND CLASSIFYING VIOLENT CRIMES

SECOND EDITION

John E. Douglas, Ann W. Burgess, Allen G. Burgess, and Robert K. Ressler, Editors

 

Recognizing and prioritizing the function of VI CAP, Howlett wrote:

 

VICAP’s purpose was not to investigate cases but to analyze them. In order to do so effectively, general patterns have to be discernible, and that is better done by establishing the general parameters of events rather than extremely specific reconstructions. Crime scenes are seldom exactly replicated, but general MOs are. Crime analysis and criminal investigation require different levels of specificity [Howlett et al., 1986, p. 17].

 

In 1986, the VI CAP report form was reduced in size from three volumes to a fifteen-page, 190-question, check-the-block, forced-choice instrument. This was the report form that users in 1995 found too difficult.

Is the role of deviant sexual fantasy related to the types of sexual offence committed by Ted Bundy? (9)

  Is the role of deviant sexual fantasy related to the types of sexual offence committed by Ted Bundy? Draw upon underlying theory in your answer. (9) QUOTATION BY UNKNOWN OWNER   9 Conclusion The present case study illustrated the role of high risk sexual fantasies in Ted Bundy’s case.   Although his fantasies played an important role in terms of selecting a victim, planning an offence and, nevertheless, coping mechanism, other factors, such as psychopathy, pornography, sexual sadism, compulsion to kill and victims’ availability are as well important in order to explain Bundy’s case. However, I acknowledge that a second data analysis of this kind is eventually biased as it does not allow for a clear understanding of Bundy’s life due to the large number of controversial biographies that have been published after his execution. Moreover, the present paper is limited as it does not specify to exact degree to which Bundy’s fantasies and the other factors contributed ...
