TY - JOUR PY - 2008// TI - Homicide-suicide by a single gunshot to the head JO - Archiv für Kriminologie A1 - Wirth, Ingo A1 - Correns, Andreas A1 - Hartwig, Sven A1 - Schmeling, Andreas A1 - Schmidt, Sarah SP - 17 EP - 27 VL - 221 IS - 1-2 N2 - Apart from typical suicides, there are sometimes unusual deaths from gunshots to the head. The presented case is a double death from the autopsy material of the Institute of Legal Medicine in Berlin. The report deals with a murder-suicide of a man, who killed himself and his 2-year-old daughter by a single gunshot. After having administered a tranquilizer to the child, he held her head to his own and fired a contact shot to his right temple so that the bullet passed through both heads.
