Victimology is a newer scientific discipline that deals with the study of the victims of crime and their suffering. Furthermore, it studies their personal characteristics, the relationship between them and perpetrators, as well as the circumstances of the event that made them the victim. Using victimology in profiling victims and creating a specific victim profile that is victimized by property or serious forms of crime can help investigators in gaining useful information during criminal investigation. The main purpose of this paper is to outline the concepts that victimologists use to explain the predispositions of people who are subject to greater risk of victimization than other people. With the development of science and the appearance of the modern age, people began to realize the importance of the victim and its role in the crime. Victim profiling is a technique that uses available information about a perpetrator, but primarily focuses on a variety of information about a victim of a criminal offense or a missing victim. It can be concluded that there is no uniform way of preventing a person from committing criminal offenses. But if one recognizes a certain person's behavior patterns, profiling will narrow down the choice of potential perpetrators and speed up the arrest process.
