Violence has always been with us since the beginning of the human species because aggressive behavior is both a danger and defense that can allow humans to oppress their competitors or prevent such tyranny. With the growing hyperbole of national politics fueled by obsessive internet usage and the drastic reduction of human interaction, some are becoming emotionally detached and violently lashing out. Outrage dominates public discourse as factions demand censorship and some are too engrossed in unimportant conflict or entertainment to observe the ongoing calamity.

Despite the extensive reviews of governments, legal experts, researchers, and members of the public some controversial topics of discussion still lay entangled within historical shadows. The scene and occurrence of the crime is of primary concern but in some cases the crucial related events span not just a given time and place but great distances that add further problems to discerning verifiable facts. A different nation, different cultures, and languages can provide almost insurmountable challenges to investigators who are unprepared for them.
