_______ is when there is history of involvement between the perpetrator and the victim.

• A. Anger Killing
• B. Triangle Killing
• C. Revenge or Jealousy Killing
• D. Killing for Profit

Answer: (C)

The main concept is that the motive comes from a prior personal relationship between the offender and the victim. When there is history, the homicide is typically driven by revenge or jealousy—the desire to punish or avenge the other based on past interactions, trust breaches, or betrayal within the relationship. This explains why the act is connected to their long-standing involvement rather than a random assault. In contrast, anger killings are usually impulsive, with little to no ongoing relationship; killing for profit centers on financial gain rather than relational grievances; and while a love-triangle scenario can involve jealousy, the specific description here highlights the history between the two people as the key factor.
