==Patricide==
In early human history there have been notable instances of [[patricide]]. For example:
* [[Tukulti-Ninurta I]] (r. 1243–1207 B.C.E.), [[Assyria]]n king, was killed by his own son after sacking [[Babylon]].
* [[Sennacherib]] (r. 704–681 B.C.E.), [[Assyria]]n king, was killed by two of his sons for his desecration of [[Babylon]].
* King [[Kassapa I]] (473 to 495 CE) creator of the Sigiriya citadel of ancient Sri Lanka killed his father king Dhatusena for the throne.
* [[Emperor Yang of Sui#Did Emperor Yang kill Emperor Wen.3F|Emperor Yang of Sui]] in Chinese history allegedly killed his father, [[Emperor Wen of Sui]].
* [[Beatrice Cenci]], Italian noblewoman who, according to legend, killed her father after he imprisoned and raped her. She was condemned and beheaded for the crime along with her brother and her stepmother in 1599.
* [[Lizzie Borden]] (1860–1927) allegedly killed her father and her stepmother with an axe in Fall River, Massachusetts, in 1892. She was acquitted, but her innocence is still disputed.
* [[Iyasus I of Ethiopia]] (1654–1706), one of the great warrior emperors of Ethiopia, was deposed by his son [[w:Tekle Haymanot I of Ethiopia|Tekle Haymanot]] in 1706 and subsequently assassinated.

In more contemporary history there have also been instances of father–offspring conflicts, such as:

* [[Chiyo Aizawa]] (born 1939) murdered her own father who had been [[rape|raping]] her for fifteen years, on October 5, 1968, in Japan. The incident changed the [[Criminal Code of Japan]] regarding patricide.

* [[Sarah Marie Johnson]] (born 1987), an [[Idaho]] girl who was convicted of killing both parents on the morning of September 2, 2003.
* [[Dipendra of Nepal]] (1971–2001) reportedly massacred much of his family at a royal dinner on June 1, 2001, including his father [[King Birendra]], mother, brother, and sister.
