Introduction: Currently, the growing number of people being victimized by sexual crimes is one of the most common phenomena affecting the community. However, and despite of the support received from clinical, legal and social areas among others (Meng & Thomas, 2010; ICBF & OIM, 2007), it has not been possible to reduce the criminal action, especially that of serial sexual offenders and perpetrators of repetitive sexual assault or rape, whose criminal dynamics and deviant behavior are examined in this study. Objectives: To establish behavioral features and particular characteristics of convicted serial sexual aggressors serving in jails in Bogota for crimes committed between 2008 and 2012. Material and methods: The above is achieved through the reading of legal dossiers, semi-structured interviews, the preparation of a logical structure for behavioral analysis, modus operandi, criminal signature, victimology, and analysis of the place of the event or crime scene. Results: The way the offenders operate and their motivations was determined, this being essential for criminal profilers in the application of analytical tools in the cases in question, as well as the orientation of the investigators in the formulation of investigative strategies aimed at effectively achieving the desired results (Chambers, Horvath & Kelly, 2010; Norza, Morales, Merchan & Melendez, 2013).
