Seminar paper from the year 2007 in the subject Law - Criminal process, Criminology, Law Enforcement, grade: A, course: CRIM 1100, language: English, abstract: (((From a first year Criminology 1100 class. A brief look into the biological, psychological, and sociological explanations of a brutal murder case in Canada.)))Introduction"Why?" Mrs. Findlay asked Jeremy Vojkovic, who attacked the mother of three minutes after she waved goodbye to her husband and children on a Tuesday morning 16 months ago. She posed the question after Mr. Vojkovic sexually assaulted her in the loft of the barn. He was putting her clothes back on and binding her wrists. Duct tape already covered her eyes. "It doesn't matter, " Mr. Vojkovic replied. "Just be quiet" (Armstrong, 2004).The Vojkovic case has enraged the hearts of many. The Findlay family, with strong social ties to the community, was dealt a devastating blow with the loss of Colleen Findlay. Upon the public hearing the accounts of what transpired, came about the discussion of the death penalty. The debate has slowly been gaining strength as a recent survey suggests that over sixty percent of British Columbian's are in favor (Mackenzie, 2004). However, for this case, the public has only heard the accounts of what transpired on the day of the murder. Many people have passed judgment without considering the biological explanations for what occurred. Were these the actions of a cold and calculated murder or the manifestation of a teenager with impaired cognitive traits?
