Alexander Pichushkin : “THE CHESSBOARD KILLER” OR “THE BITSA PARK MANIAC”Palash Mehar
Alexander is a process-focused serial killer, which means he killed the victims slowly and received enjoyment from the torture and the slow death of the victims.
Alexander Pichushkin was arrested on June 16, 2006, and sentenced on October 24, 2007, of 49 murders and 3 attempted murders.
He requested that a Russian court add an extra 11 victim to his body count, bringing his guaranteed death toll to 60, and 3 surviving victims.
During his trial, as with Andrei Chikatilo, Pichushkin was housed in a glass cage for his own protection.

7 Basic Requirements for an Act to be a Crime
Defense must prove failure of a basic requirement
• 1. The act requirement – mind & Body
• Conscious act not an unconscious act or reaction
• Not a status or condition
• 2. The legality requirement – prohibited by law
• Thoughts without action – no crime
• Choosing to not fill out sex registration forms – is a crime
• Good Samaritan?
• 3. The harm requirement
• 4. The causation requirement
• Behavior in question caused the harm – not a 3rd party
• 5. The mens rea requirement (guilty mind)
• 6. The concurrence requirement
• Must be a criminal act with criminal intent (Ex: striker – rock –window)
• Exceptions – felony murder
• 7. The punishment requirement – its must already exist

Criminal defense negates basic ingredients of
crime.
• Crime – must be known to the police
• Not all crimes reported are cleared
• DA will not always prosecute
• Defense negation of crime elements examples:
• Insanity defense; legality requirement lacking; duress, self-defense.
• State tries cases on behalf of the state
• Victims can file civil law suits for pain and suffering
Typologies of Crime
• The French created the following three categories accepted
worldwide
• Felonies - severe
• Misdemeanors – minor
• Violation - fines
• As Criminologist we will also focus on the following
• Violent crime
• Crimes against property
• White collar and corporate crime
• Drug, alcohol and sex-related crime

3
Reasons for Measuring Crime
• Researchers collect and analyze data to test theories about why
people commit crime.
• Researchers and criminal justice agencies need to enhance their
knowledge of the characteristics of various types of offenses.
• Criminal justice agencies depend on certain information to facilitate
daily operations and anticipate future needs.
The Research Process
• Topic – research question
• Theory: is a set of principles that explain how 2 or more phenomena
are related
• May choose to use a hypothesis or not.
• Methodology (qualitative vs. quantitative)
• Will you use secondary data or primary data
• Analysis
• What did you do, findings, discussions and conclusions

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

Deaths from Police Use of ForceDeaths from Police Use of Force
Richard Johnson, Ph.D.

2. Public ConcernsPublic Concerns
Community reactions to three deaths of
African-American males by police
officers in the last year have raised
public concerns nationwide about the
prevalence of police use of deadly force
generally, and police use of deadly
force against African-American men
specifically.
3. Research QuestionsResearch Questions
This analysis sought to answer five research questions:
– How many deaths occur annually from police use of force?
– How does the frequency of deaths from police use of force
compare to other forms of homicide, suicide, and other unusual
events?
– How many deaths of black men occur annually from police use of
force?
– How does the frequency of black male deaths from police use of
force compare to other forms of homicide, suicide, and other
unusual events?
– How often should the police legitimately be using lethal force?
4. The DataThe Data
• The data consisted of all 56,259 homicides that were discovered
between January 1, 2009 and December 31, 2012.
• This is the most recent federal data available on all homicides
reported within the United States.
• Homicide is defined as the intentional or negligent killing of one
person by another. It can include legal killings (such as justifiable
homicide), negligent accidents (such as a child playing with a
gun), and criminal killings (such as murder).
5. The DataThe Data
• The data for this analysis came from the 2009-2012 Uniform
Crime Report’s Supplemental Homicide Reports published
annually by the federal government.
• During this 4-year period, a total of 56,259 homicide victims were
reported in the U.S.
• The circumstances of these homicides were examined and
compared to U.S. Center for Disease Control data on other
causes of death, such as suicide and motor vehicle accidents.
They were also compared to National Weather Service data on
people struck by lightning.
6. Prevalence of Police-Related KillingsPrevalence of Police-Related Killings
• Of the 56,259 homicides from 2009-2012, 1,491 were the result
of police use of force.
• By comparison during that same time period:
– 755 were the result of negligent accident homicides (i.e., child
playing with a gun)
– 1,120 were justifiable homicides by citizens acting in self-defense
– 52,893 were criminal homicides (murders)
7. Prevalence of Police-Related KillingsPrevalence of Police-Related Killings
• This suggests yearly averages of:
– 372 persons killed each year by police use of force
• Compare this to the following averages:
– 189 persons killed each year in negligent accidents
– 280 persons killed each year in justifiable homicides by citizens
acting in self-defense
– 13,223 persons killed each year in criminal homicides (murders &
manslaughters)
8. Prevalence of Police-Related KillingsPrevalence of Police-Related Killings
• This suggests yearly averages of:
– 372 persons killed each year by police use of force
• Compare this to these additional averages:
– 35,900 persons killed each year in the U.S. in motor vehicle
accidents*
– 38,364 persons commit suicide in the U.S. each year**
– 373 persons are struck by lightning in the U.S. each year***

9. Prevalence of Police-Related KillingsPrevalence of Police-Related Killings
• As the U.S. population is 316,128,839 persons, here are
annual percentages:
– 0.012% of the U.S. population committed suicide last year
– 0.011% of the U.S. population died in a vehicle crash last year
– 0.004% of the U.S. population died in a criminal homicide last year
– 0.00012% of the U.S. population died from police use of force
last year
– 0.00012% of the U.S. population was struck by lightning last
year
– 0.00009% of the U.S. population was legally killed by a private
citizen in self-defense last year
10. Prevalence of Police-Related KillingsPrevalence of Police-Related Killings
• Research Question 1: How many deaths occur annually
from police use of force?
• Answer: On average, 372 persons die each year in the U.S.
from police use of force. This is less than the passenger
capacity of a Boeing 777 airliner.
11. Prevalence of Police-Related KillingsPrevalence of Police-Related Killings
• Research Question 2: How does the frequency of deaths
from police use of force compare to other forms of
homicide, suicide, and other unusual events?
• Answer: People are 103 times more likely to commit
suicide, 97 times more likely to be killed in a vehicle crash,
and 34 times more likely to be murdered by a criminal than
they are to die from police use of force.
12. Prevalence of Police-Related KillingsPrevalence of Police-Related Killings
• Research Question 2: How does the frequency of deaths
from police use of force compare to other forms of
homicide, suicide, and other unusual events?
• Answer: Deaths from police use of force occur about as
frequently as being struck by lightning.
13. Police-Related Killings and Black MalesPolice-Related Killings and Black Males
• Research Question: How many deaths of black men occur
annually from police use of force?
• Research Question: How does the frequency of black
male deaths from police use of force compare to other
forms of homicide, suicide, and other unusual events?
14. Police-Related Killings and Black MalesPolice-Related Killings and Black Males
• Of the 1,491 persons that died from police use of force
from 2009-2012:
– 915 (61.4%) were white males
– 481 (32.2%) were black males
– 48 (3.2%) were males of other races
– 28 (1.9%) were white females
– 15 (1.1%) were black females
– 4 (0.2%) were females of other races
• The majority of those who died from police use of force
during this time period were white males, not black males.
15. Police-Related Killings and Black MalesPolice-Related Killings and Black Males
• Of the 56,259 homicides from 2009-2012, 19,000 (33.8%) were
killings of black males.
• Comparisons by types of homicides of black males:
– 481 (2.5%) were the result of police use of force
– 152 (0.8%) were the result of a negligent accident homicides (i.e.,
child playing with a gun)
– 648 (3.4%) were the result of a justifiable homicides by private
citizens acting in self-defense
– 17,719 (93.3%) were criminal homicides (murders)
Private citizens killed a quarter more black males in justifiable
homicides than did police use of force
16. Police-Related Killings and Black MalesPolice-Related Killings and Black Males
• While only 6% of the U.S. population is identified as black and
male, 57.9% of the persons legally killed by a private citizen in
self-defense were black males.
• However, 73.1% of the black males legally killed by a citizen in
self-defense between 2009-2012 were killed by a black citizen.
• Heartbreakingly, due to a variety of societal factors, black males
are disproportionately involved in violent crime, especially
against black citizens.
17. Police-Related Killings and Black MalesPolice-Related Killings and Black Males
• 42.6% of victims of all solved criminal homicides from 2009-
2012 were black males
• 89.6% of black males killed in criminal homicides from 2009-
2012 were killed by another black male
• 40.6% of the police officers murdered in the line of duty from
2009-2012 were killed by black males*
• In spite of these statistics, only 32.2% of the deaths from police
use of force from 2009-2012 involved black males
* www.fbi.gov/about-us/cjis/ucr/leoka
18. Police-Related Killings and Black MalesPolice-Related Killings and Black Males
• These data suggest yearly averages of:
– 120 black males are killed each year by police use of force
• Compare this to the following averages:
– 38 black males are killed each year in negligent accidents
– 162 black males are killed each year in justifiable homicides by
citizens acting in self-defense
– 4,166 black males are killed each year in criminal homicides

20. Police-Related Killings and Black MalesPolice-Related Killings and Black Males
• As there are approximately 20,864,500 black males in the
U.S., here are annual percentages:
– 0.020% of all black males died in a criminal homicide last year
– 0.012% of all black males committed suicide last year
– 0.011% of all black males died in a vehicle crash last year
– 0.00078% of all black males died by a private citizen acting in
self-defense
– 0.00078% of all black males died from police use of force last
year
Black males in the U.S. are killed just as frequently by (mostly
black) private citizens acting in self-defense as they are
killed by police use of force.
21. Police-Related Killings and Black MalesPolice-Related Killings and Black Males
• Research Question 3: How many deaths of black men
occur annually from police use of force?
• Answer: Approximately 120 per year, or 1 out of every
173,871 black males in the U.S.
• Answer: Approximately equal to only a third of Americans
struck by lightning each year, which is 373.
22. Police-Related Killings and Black MalesPolice-Related Killings and Black Males
• Research Question 4: How does the frequency of black male
deaths from police use of force compare to other forms of
homicide, suicide, and other unusual events?
• Answer: While black males are disproportionately involved in
violent crime, the vast majority of people killed by police use
of force (67.8%) are not black males.
• Answer: Black males are 35 times more likely to be killed in a
criminal homicide, 20 times more likely to die in a vehicle
crash, 21 times more likely to commit suicide, and equally
likely to be killed in self-defense by a black citizen as they
are to be killed by the police.
23. Legitimate Police Use of Lethal ForceLegitimate Police Use of Lethal Force
• Research Question 5: How often should the police
legitimately be using lethal force?
• In other words, based on the limits of the law, how
frequently should we expect police use of lethal force to
legally occur?
24. Legitimate Police Use of Lethal ForceLegitimate Police Use of Lethal Force
• In Tennessee v. Garner (1985) and other cases, the U.S.
Supreme Court specified that the police officers may use lethal
force when reasonable and necessary to prevent imminent
serious bodily injury.
• The legal definition of serious bodily injury is:
“Injury that involves substantial risk of death, unconsciousness,
extreme physical pain, protracted and obvious disfigurement, or
protracted loss or impairment of the function of a bodily member,
organ, or mental faculty.”*
* www.lectlaw.com
25. Legitimate Police Use of Lethal ForceLegitimate Police Use of Lethal Force
• According to national statistics gathered by the FBI, from
2009-2012 a total of 58,207 police officers sustained
injuries from assaults and another 224 police officers were
murdered in the line of duty.*
• This is greater than the seating capacity of a typical college
football stadium.
* www.fbi.gov/about-us/cjis/ucr/leoka
26. Legitimate Police Use of Lethal ForceLegitimate Police Use of Lethal Force
• These figures suggest an annual average of
14,552 officers injured, and 56 officers killed each
year in assaults while on duty.
27. Legitimate Police Use of Lethal ForceLegitimate Police Use of Lethal Force
• Not all of the injuries sustained by police officers in these
assaults may meet the legal definition of serious bodily
injury, but many of them do.
• Furthermore, as lethal force may legally be used when
there is simply the threat of imminent serious bodily injury
without any injury actually resulting (such as pointing a
loaded gun at a police officer), the figures on officers
injured and killed are a very conservative estimate of
circumstances permitting the legitimate use of lethal force.
28. Legitimate Police Use of Lethal ForceLegitimate Police Use of Lethal Force
• So, while it can be estimated that police officers sustain
bodily injuries or death from assaults in approximately
14,600 incidents a year, in response only an average of
372 persons die each year as a result of police use of
force.
• This would suggest significant restraint on the part of
police officers nationwide with regard to the use of deadly
force, not an epidemic of police-initiated killings in the
U.S.
30. Questions to Address TogetherQuestions to Address Together
• Where does the false perception of widespread
police killings of citizens originate?
• What can the police and community members do
to reduce hostility and misunderstandings
between the police and community members?
• What can the police and community members do
together to reduce the heartbreaking reality of the
high suicide and violent crime rates among
African-American males in impoverished urban
areas?
31. Questions to Address TogetherQuestions to Address Together
• What can the police and the community do
together to reduce violent crime, especially
violent crime against members of the African-
American community?
• What can the police and community do to
maintain open communication about police uses
of force?
