Indirect fractures in long bones resulting from gunshot trauma: Occurrence, characterization, and need for additional research

Journal of Forensic Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Indirect fractures from gunshot wounds can occur when a projectile impacts soft tissue without making direct contact with the bone. Existing biomechanical and clinical research suggests that indirect fractures result in lower levels of comminution, and that resultant fracture patterns can resemble those seen in blunt force trauma (e.g., wedge ...

Suicides disguised as homicides through weapon concealment: A two‐way copycat phenomenon between fiction and real world

Journal of Forensic Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Suicides disguised as homicides present a persistent challenge in forensic case analysis, particularly when the weapon is deliberately removed after discharge. This study investigates the evolution of weapon concealment techniques—specifically the “load‐and‐rope” and “helium balloon‐tied gun” methods—across documented casework, forensic ...

Firearm sexual homicide offenders: Criminal careers, psychopathology, and offense conduct

Journal of Forensic Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Most homicides are firearm‐perpetrated, but in sexual homicide, offenders are more likely to utilize personal weapons (e.g., hands and feet), contact weapons (e.g., blunt object), or edged weapons (e.g., knife) to comport with their fantasy life, motivational states, and psychopathology.

On the Conceptual Overstretch of Weaponized Interdependence in Lithium and Rare‐Earth Element Markets

Global Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper critically examines the conceptual overstretch of weaponized interdependence (WI) in analyses of China's dominance over lithium and rare‐earth element (REE) markets. Although WI has become a central framework for interpreting EU–China economic relations, its application to raw materials often extends beyond the theory's original ...
