A world-first research project, here in Australia, is hoping to take learnings from lone-actor terrorism and apply it to domestic violence in order to prevent family and intimate partner homicides. Researchers say there are a lot of similarities in the perpetrators - their planning of attacks, histories and another common thread, they're motivated by grievances. Troy McEwan is the chief investigator & Professor of Clinical and Forensic Psychology at Swinburne University's Centre for Forensic Behavioural Science. She says the group is working to implement lessons from across the different research areas to prevent further deaths.
