Regardless of age, homicides involving multiple stabbings should be considered sex-related, especially when the victim is female. Statistically, jealousy was the most frequent motive for sex-related multiple stabbing homicides. For female victims, all homicides committed by 25 and more stab wounds were found to be sex-related. The correlation coefficients between multiple stabbing and sex-related homicides regarding gender are all near 0.9. Sensitivity and specificity are represented by ROC curves for 3, 5 and 7 stab wounds. When the criteria for multiple stabbing are changed (≥ 4, 5, or 25 stab wounds), the percentage of sex-related homicides rises in every group in relation to the increased number of wounds. Multiple stabbing occurs significantly more frequently in sex-related homicides (≥ 3 stab wounds) than in other homicide types. Cases include both hetero- and homosexual relationships. The motives of homicides are classified as non-sexual and sexual, including homicides related to rape, jealousy, amorous affairs outside of an established relationship, deviant sexual behaviour of psychiatric patients, paraphilia, and disturbed emotional relationships between the victim and the assailant. These were reviewed and analysed according to the motive of the homicide, as well as by method, age, and gender of the victim, and the relationship between the victim and the assailant. This paper is conducted through a retrospective autopsy study that includes 766 cases of homicides. This study tries to establish whether such homicides are essentially related to the sexual motives of the murderer. It is known that homicides which involve multiple stabbing are very often the result of the assailant's highly expressed affect. It is possible that sexually driven homicides are the consequence of sexual deviation, but more often than not the main cause of such homicides stems from a non-paraphilic person's emotional component.
