Crime linkage is a systematic way of assessing behavioural or physical characteristics of crimes and considering the likelihood they are linked to the same offender. This study builds on research in this area by replicating existing studies with a new type of burglar known as optimal foragers, who are offenders whose target selection is conducted in a similar fashion to foraging animals. Using crimes identified by police analysts as being committed by foragers this study examines their crime scene behaviour to assess the level of predictive accuracy for linking crimes based on their offending characteristics. Results support previous studies on randomly selected burglary offence data by identifying inter-crime distance as the highest linking indicator, followed by target selection, entry behaviour, property stolen and offender crime scene behaviour. Results discuss distinctions between this study and previous research findings, outlining the potential that foraging domestic burglary offenders display distinct behaviours to other forms of offender (random/marauder/commuter).

将觅食家庭盗窃联系起来:对警方确定的最佳觅食者补丁中所犯罪行的分析

犯罪联系是一种评估犯罪行为或身体特征并考虑它们与同一罪犯有关的可能性的系统方法。这项研究建立在这一领域的研究基础上,将现有研究与一种被称为最佳觅食者的新型窃贼进行了重复,这些窃贼是罪犯,其目标选择的方式与觅食动物相似本研究使用警方分析人员确定的由觅食者犯下的罪行,检查他们的犯罪现场行为,以根据犯罪特征评估关联犯罪的预测准确性水平。结果支持先前对随机选择的入室盗窃犯罪数据的研究,将犯罪间距离确定为最高的链接指标,其次是目标选择、进入行为、财产被盗和犯罪现场行为。结果讨论了本研究与先前研究结果之间的区别,概述了觅食家庭入室盗窃犯罪者与其他形式的犯罪​​者(随机/掠夺者/通勤者)表现出不同行为的可能性。
