abstract="This research investigated cases of femicide in Great Britain where perpetrators claimed that victims died in &quot;sex games gone wrong.&quot; Forty-three femicides that resulted in a conviction for murder, manslaughter, or culpable homicide were examined in relation to victim-perpetrator sociodemographic characteristics, victim-perpetrator relationship, homicide details, and criminal justice outcomes. Key patterns within the data were identified. The research highlights that the &quot;sex game gone wrong&quot; narrative has gained traction against a cultural backdrop of normalized bondage, domination, and sadomasochism (BDSM) within neoliberal political economy.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
