Note: For this chart, a subset consisting of homicide incidents with a single accused was created, which represents 95% of the total number of persons accused of family violence against children and youth between 2000 and 2010. The percentages shown are derived from this subset of single accused. Fathers and mothers include biological, step, foster and adoptive parents. Other family members include all other related to the victim through blood, marriage, foster care, or adoption. Excludes spousal victims under the age of 15 years.
