Chapter 4: Perpetrators and Victims of Crime

In recent years, young teenagers/adults are usually the victims of crimes, but lately it has dropped because kids got more into playing video games, that's why there are less crimes than there was before. Usually with race, like what Professor Mcninch said, "If there is a black man dead, it is usually another black man who kid him," or "If it is a white guy that is dead, most likely it is a white man who kid him." This is usually the cause of jealousy and money, but most likely if a man was killed it is usually known that he was killed by his race because of they have a relationship with each other or they are very close or maybe related these are always the causes of incidents. As of Crime profiling it involves the analysis of criminal incidents to isolate the precise characteristics of offenders, victims, and situations in order to better understand and prevent crime. They are more focused on the characteristics and conduct of offenders and victims while crime scene profiling involves examination of the physical and situational characteristics of criminal incidents. Also for offender profiles they are developed by examining a large number of similar crimes to look for common patterns. For example, their physical and social characteristics, prior history, and method of conduct). Victim profiles are tje examination of a large number of similar criminal incidents to find patterns in the types of persons who are victimized under certain circumstances. Like 14.4 million black households in the united states versus 96 million white households, blacks are victimized at a rate of 44 per 1,000 households. The rate for whites is 28 per 1,000 and 23 per 1,000 for households of other races. Finally, the Crime scene profiles are the examination of the circumstances surrounding criminal incidents in a search for patterns associated with criminal offending.
