abstract="The broad spectrum of sexual crime and violence includes several entities, including rape and sexual homicide, despite being legally conceived as distinct, non-correlated crimes. In some cases, rape and sexual murder are conceptualized as a continuum of violence, being sexualized and escalated due to situational and personal factors in the crime scene. The authors describe a case of sexual assault and attempted murder by a male offender against an adult female victim. The authors intend to shape the offender’s psychological profile, behavioral strategies, key motivations and diagnoses. Relevant literature is reviewed briefly so that the incident be studied and discussed in correlation to the existing knowledge on the issue.  Keywords: Forensic Science – Forensic Psychiatry – Legal Medicine – Sexual Violence",
