Abstract
This article presents some psychosocial and juridical aspects of voluntary
manslaughters that occurred in Costa Rica during the 1998-1999 period. The study is
based on guilty verdicts given by the justice courts. The outcomes indicate that there
are no significant differences between manslaughter and murder; fire weapons were
the main way for committing murder; nearly one in four offenders had a criminal
record, and in two thirds of the cases, the victim and the offender knew each other.
