dc.description.notesOverview:This Australian Institute of Criminology (AIC) study examines the 1565 solved homicides in the AIC’s National Homicide Monitoring Program (NHMP) database for the period between 1 July 2000 and 30 June 2006 in relation to alcohol use by the victim or the offender.<br/ ><br/ >Discussion:The study found, comparable to previous research, that victim, offender and incident characteristics distinguished alcohol-related homicides from other homicides. It is the incident characteristics which most markedly set alcohol-related homicides apart from the rest, underscoring the importance of the situational and environmental factors which trigger alcohol-related homicide.<br/ ><br/ >A key finding of this analysis was that alcohol is equally likely to be associated in intimate-partner homicides as it is in all other homicides, but in cases where a male victim is killed by a female partner, alcohol is much more highly linked to the homicide (73%) than in the case of a female victim and a male intimate partner (36%).<br/ ><br/ >In an examination of homicides involving intimate partners within the Indigenous population, alcohol was shown to be a factor in the vast majority of cases.en
