two different theories to explain the crime of robbery. The two theories I will be focusing on will be the rational choice theory and the routine activity theory. In 2011, the Federal Bureau of Investigations (F.B.I.) Uniform Crime Reporting Program (U.C.R.) estimates that there were approximately 354,396 robberies in the US accounting for $409 million in losses of individuals (Federal Bureau of Investigation, 2011).

When him and four gang members decided to reb a teller at a back in Pennsylvania, Kapler ended up…
Further, his preference for trains and watching train videos suggested a stereotypical view of a little boy. Another observation that I made of Brandon’s play was that he played quietly without any apparent aggression. This could be due in part because he was the only child present at Meme’s house that evening.
