Quotes About Victimology

Murder investigations start with the victim, because usually in the first instance thats all youve got. The study of the victim is called victimology because everything sounds better with an ology tacked on the end. To make sure you make a proper fist of this, the police have developed the worlds most useless mnemonic - 5 x W H & H - otherwise known as Who? What? Where? When? Why? and How? Next time you watch a real murder investigation on the TV, and you see a group of serious-looking detectives standing around talking, remember that what theyre actually doing is trying to work out what sodding order the mnemonic is supposed to go in. Once theyve sorted that out, the exhausted officers will retire to the nearest watering hole for a drink and a bit of a breather.
