When Females Kill One Another

The Exceptional Case

ANN GOETTING

Western Kentucky University

The population of 15 females arrested for killing members of their own gender in Detroit, Michigan, during 1982 and 1983 are described in the context of their deadly acts. This profile of female-on-female homicide includes demographic and social characteristics of offenders and victims, circumstances of offense, and arrest and court dispositions. Explanatory considerations are offered.
