Homicide Sample Clauses

Homicide. The most serious health consequence associated with domestic violence is homicide. Difficulties arise when attempting to measure the extent of domestic violence homicides, as official records may conceal deaths as accidental or attribute them to unknown causes (WHO 2002). Consequently, prevalence estimates are likely to underestimate the true extent of domestic violence related homicides. Evidence suggests that 47% of UK female homicides and 5% of male homicides are perpetrated by a current partner or ex-partner (Xxxxx, Xxxxxxx, Xxx, et al, 2012). Similar figures are reported worldwide: in Australia, Canada, Israel, South Africa and the United States around 40-70% of female homicides are perpetrated by intimate partners (Xxxx, Xxxxx, Xxxxxxxx, et al, 2002). Recent findings from the 2006-2008 UK Confidential Enquiry into Maternal and Child Health found that among 261 mothers who died from any cause 39 (12%) had features of domestic violence and eight of these women were murdered by an intimate partner or spouse (Centre for Maternal and Child Enquires, 2011).
