Somander, Lis K. H.; Rammer, Lennart M.
Child Abuse and Neglect: The International Journal, v15 n1-2 p45-55 1991
Over a 10-year period, 96 children (age 0-14) were victims of homicide in Sweden, an average annual rate of 0.6 per 100,000 children. Most homicides were intrafamilial in nature. Cases of child abuse by a parent and cases of sexual abuse among the homicide victims were infrequent. (Author/JDD)
