Victimology

1. search the web for news coverage of crime and crime victimization events such as www.cnn.com, www.abcnews.go.com
2. collect at least one example of a news story depicting each of the following victim roles:
-Completely innocent
-Victim proneness

3. as part of the lab report, you will be providing a written summary for each of the six articles you selected to be indicative of each of the categories, and a statement explaining why you think the story is an example of the victim role category.
4. All news stories must be coverage of events that occurred after 7/01/12
5. copy and paste the exact web address’ of the articles.

Format:

I will do my best to explain each of the categories.

Completely innocent- where the victim was completely innocent

victim proneness- making yourself vulnerable of the crime
ex. you’re a cab driver, you have to go to any place where your customers want you to go to.

victim facilitation- making it possible for a crime to occur. ex. leaving your car keys in a car unlocked. when you do something careless

Victim precipitation- victim being foolish?
ex. when driving down the road slowly, the driver behind you honks at you to go faster but instead you drive even slower and give him the middle finger. they drive pass you and shoot you.

Victim provocation- the victim wants the crime to happen
ex. if you were to randomly attack someone and they defended themselves where you got more seriously hurt

Victim fabrication- false reporting, no crime at all. victim is totally responsible
