The respondents in this study include the police officials from Polresta Bandar Lampung, criminal investigators from Polresta Bandar Lampung, and criminal law lecturers from the Faculty of Law at Universitas Lampung. Data were collected through literature reviews and field observations, and analyzed qualitatively. The findings indicate several factors contributing to premeditated murder by close associates, including inadequate economic conditions, low education levels, revenge, and drug use.
