true_crime

Posts depicting real life murderers, including attempted murderers and victims of murder cases. A focal interest of hybristophiles, people who are attracted to those who commit crimes.

Be careful when uploading under this tag as true crime artists may sometimes include a photo inset of the perpetrator when they were or are a minor as photo (medium)s of real life minors are prohibited against Danbooru (site)'s terms of service.

Do not use this tag under movies based on real life events such as Elephant (Movie) and Zero Day (Movie) since their perpetrators and crimes are fictional. In addition, do not use this tag under non-murderous perpetrators (ex. Jeffrey Epstein) as true crime specifically refers to murderers or victims of murder cases instead of general criminals.

In regards to victims of murder cases, only use this tag if the victim is solely or primarily known for their murder case and references it. If it's a memorial for the victim or has the date they passed (post #11309712), do not use this tag. If they were a public figure beforehand (ex. Christina Grimmie), do not use this tag as well.

In regards to perpetrators who were public figures prior (ex. D4VD), only use this tag if the post was created after the crime and references it.
