Item Factores psicosociales que contribuyen al filicidio motivado por venganza: Caso del asesinato de la pequeña Sofía Cadavid(Universidad Santiago de Cali, 2024) Rios Silva, Dominick Mariam; Velandia García, Adriana (Directora)This study focuses on the psychosocial factors contributing to revenge-motivated filicide, using the case of Sofía Cadavid Henao’s murder in Rio Negro, Colombia. The research delves into the motivations behind filicide, encompassing psychological, social, and cultural factors, with particular attention to revenge-motivated filicide, also known as Medea complex syndrome. Additionally, the study presents filicide statistics in Colombia, highlighting municipalities with the highest homicide rates. Filicide types are classified according to Resnick (1969), including altruistic, psychotic, unwanted child, accidental, and spousal revenge filicide. The role of Social Workers is emphasized as crucial in developing social policies, implementing prevention programs, and directly intervening in high-risk cases, thereby helping to protect children and prevent tragedies like revenge-motivated filicide.
