Review the Learning Resources this week to deepen your understanding of the demographics and risk factors associated with becoming a criminal or a victim. Review the Week 2 Case Studi

To prepare:

• Review the Learning Resources this week to deepen your understanding of the demographics and risk factors associated with becoming a criminal or a victim.
• Review the Week 2 Case Studies document and consider the demographics and risk factors associated with each of the cases presented.
• Select one case study from the Week 2 Case Studies document on which to focus for this Discussion.

Post a summary of the case you selected and your responses to the following questions:

• What demographics and risk factors (e.g., acute, direct, proxy, short, and long-term) are involved that may have contributed to the person becoming a victim or offender?
• How are the demographics and risk factors for becoming a criminal or victim related? How are they similar and/or different?
• How might the demographics and risk factors vary in a country other than the United States?
• If an individual reflects the data supporting the likelihood of becoming a criminal or victim, does that guarantee the outcome? Explain your rationale.

Note: Your post should be substantial (1 paragraph or more for each bullet point above), supported with scholarly evidence from your research and/or the Learning Resources, and properly cited using APA style.
