Is rape and murder linked? Are rapist more likely to kill people than and average person?

Answer 1

I think if someone raped my child it would make me feel like i would want to KILL Them.........or hurt them in some way!!

Answer 2

Report this man to the police, I don't know whether or not they will be able to convict him on your evidence, but if he hurts someone else your evidence could be invaluable in getting this scumbag a conviction.

Answer 3

Gather as much as evidence as you can ( condom , DNA , don't take a shower , etc...) then call the police and seek medical attention .

prepare for the medical examination by asking them to explain what will be done beforehand.

At any time during this process ask for information about Psychological counseling ,Victim’s rights throughout the proceedings,The course of the proceedings.

yes , rape and murder are linked , people can die from rape .

Answer 4

They can be linked but not always. Are rapists more likely to kill people, that just depends on that individual person. I would report that person to the police if you are scared.

Answer 5

You will commonly hear that most rapes are committed by a person the injured party knows. This can often be partners / ex partners. In the same way a significant proportion of murders are also domestic related and so i guess that you could claim the two are linked. Someone who has the violent nature to rape a friend or family member may also end up killing them in a later incident.

Answer 6

Both are acts of violence aimed at gaining power.
