Assignment 2: Theories of Crime

In the United States, policy makers, law enforcement personnel, government officials, and many others work to develop laws and programs aimed at preventing crime and also reacting to crimes that have occurred. In developing these programs and policies, it is important to understand the types of people who commit certain crimes as well as the rationale behind criminal behavior.

In your role as a consultant to the city of Centervale, you should be able to demonstrate your knowledge about the theories of crime.
