Commit suicide by interposed police force

The Suicide by interposed police force is a method of Suicide in which a person deliberately acts in a way threatening with respect to a representative of the Police force in order to cause an answer mortal, for example while being made draw above with a Firearm. Such a person is, generally, desperate but for an unspecified reason does not want or the act to remove the life itself cannot make. For example, it may be that she wants to guarantee to her close relations the payment of the life insurance, which is difficult to obtain in the event of proven suicide. Another reason for the choice of this type of suicide is the will to avoid slow, dubious methods and more douloureuses  ; the person not having access to a firearm thus diverts the obligation which have the police officers to carry a weapon to give death.

This type of suicide is seen by certain like a modern form of Amok, method in which the future victim attacks many people until being itself killed.

In a less frequent way, the candidate with the suicide seeking to cause a violent reaction can attack with a famous criminal or other types of people who usually make use of a form of fatal force. The final motivation remains the same one, with in more the desire putting the gunner in perilous situation.

Indices of this suicidal behavior can be rather easily detected a posteriori , as the use of a nonfunctional weapon (toy, starting gun) or not charged. A letter found on the victim and specifying its intention to give death is another form of index. Many programs of drive intended for the police force include specific chapters today to manage this type of situation.

Sometimes the term suicide by interposed police force is used ironically, to dissimulate the fact that the victim was killed in a voluntary way by the police force, in circumstances which can let think of a case of self-defense of the police officer. The concerned real reasons are frequently a will to curtail a perilous situation, a mischievousness which pushes to punish the attacker beyond what is allowed by the law, an irrational fear of the suspect (often based on a racial consideration) or an overzealousness on behalf of an inexperienced member of the police force.

The suicide by interposed police force was quoted for the first time in the newspapers in 1981 and in the scientific magazines since 1985, although this term becomes current only at the beginning of the Années 1990. It seems that this expression was born with the the United States. Certain historians think that the man who tried to assassinate the president Franklin D. Roosevelt coldly elected, Giuseppe Zangara, could try a suicide by interposed police force.

A certain number of films put in scene the suicide by interposed police force, like Freefall (1993, with Michael Douglas), Duets , Tir at sight (1984, with Sandrine Bonnaire) and certain episodes of American series ( Without has Trace on CBS, Law & Order: Criminal Intent on NBC). The novel The Outsiders also makes state of it. Finally the film Seven shows a particularly complex alternative of it.

The suicide by interposed police force ( in suicide by COP ) is a phenomenon primarily étasunien where the use of the firearms and the techniques of neutralizations of the armed individuals by the police force are not the same one as in Europe.
