Why do people commit crime?
People commit crimes for many reasons. Maybe they are poor and commit crime to get food, clothes etc. they cannot afford. Maybe they are unemployed and bored or rich and bored. Vandalism and drug related crimes are sometimes committed to provide excitement. Usually someone begins by committing a "small offence" which is unpunished. The criminal then commits bigger offences. Crime can become a habit or a way of life. There is no one answer as to why people commit crime. |
