dentify, discuss and enumerate each difference in the criminal homicide as a situational transaction as opposed to a homicide committed by a “contract killer” or “hit man.” In addition, identify the cognitive “coping” mechanism that the contract killer might develop in an effort to cope with “deviant” behavior. What role, if any, might victimology play in the motivation of the situational homicide offender? Do you believe the identity of the victim is significant in the motivation behind the actions of the contract killer? Based on your current readings, would you expect that the contract killer share any common cognitive, social, psychobiological or cultural characteristics with a serial killer?
