Fratricide in a Person with Intellectual Disabilities.

Lino Faccini and Marie A. Saide

Fratricide is an area within forensic psychology that has received little attention. Even less attention has been given to fratricide with persons with Intellectual Disabilities. There are very few studies that have identified risk factors and essential dynamics. Even less attention is given to a typology of fratricide. This case study highlights the possibility of a third category and an integrated category, and also proposes another set of intergenerational dynamics occurring within an adult person with Intellectual Disabilities.
