Between 2006 and 2013 march, 381 parents were killed by their children in Republic of Korea. Parricide is about 5% of all homicides. We retrospectively studied 151 cases of parricide and investigated the association between schizophrenia and the characteristics of children of age, sex, materials and seasons. Present study is an analysis of 163 patricide and 175 matricide. Parricides caused by parents’ mental illness accounted for 39.6 % of all cases. Differences and Similarities were found between cases of patricide and matricide. We also investigate that victims are children and the killers are their parents during the same period. And approximately 44.4 % of the perpetrators attempted suicide following the maternal filicide. However, young mothers with severe mental illness require careful monitoring by mental health support services.

법과학 분야는 사회정의 구현에 있어 크나큰 가치가 있음에도 불구하고 우리나라에서는 이 분야에 대한 인식이 미흡하여 선진 외국에 비해 침체되어 있는 실정이다. 이에 우리나라에서도 법과학 분야와 관련 있는 학계, 연구기관, 수사기관 등 유관 단체들로 구성된 한국 법과학회를 창립하여 이 분야를 활성화 시켜 과학수사를 한층 더 발전시키기 위함을 목적으로 한다.
