What is noted in this research is that normal, everyday people who would normally not associate themselves in any criminal actions feel impacted by their sociological and environmental situations (such as the hurricane) to go ahead and commit crime. The behavior of these actions is solely based on personal choice or we could say a rational type of theory of crime. This paper explores many reasons into the behaviors of crime as well as a little of the biological issues. It also offers up some of the criminal actions that are considered to be of a more detrimental nature to society as a whole.

Any type of criminal behavior poses a threat to society but there are specific criminal actions that would seem to pose more of a higher percentage of concern. One of the scariest and deadly has to do with those who would stalk their unsuspecting victims. Although the definition of stalking varies from state to state the most common perception of this activity is of someone being involved with actions that almost certainly place an individual in a state of fear for their life (Using: National Center for Victims of Crime 1995). This form of crime has only just recently received the distinct classification of separation from other associative acts classified in the area of domestic violence. The reasons for this are difficult to pinpoint but the main assumption is due to the fact that the need to focus more fully on combating and minimizing it is the main cause of the legal changes stemming from its occurrences. This specific crime is difficult to find an estimate for simply because it is not reported by law enforcement like other crimes are. However, an approximated figure could be guessed to be around 1 in every 20 women in America will at some point become a victim of a stalker. Since Congress passed the 1994 Crime Bill, better statistics are now available to correctly calculate and determine how prevalent this type of violent criminal activity has become (Using: National Center for Victims of Crime 1995).

Sociological Factors of Stalking

Also, there are various phases of stalking and different reasons for the act of this crime taking place. It could be relative from an obsession over someone or it could be a simple obsession where an actual romantic relationship did in fact take place. In this category there are defining characteristics that lead up and actually provide a more concise interpretation of the stalking activity. These character traits are as follows:

Socially maladjusted and inept

Emotionally immature

Often subject to feelings of powerlessness

Unable to succeed in relationships by socially acceptable means

Jealous bordering on paranoid

Extremely insecure about themselves and suffering from low self-esteem

(Using: National Center for Victims of Crime 1995).

These are all typical characteristics and all of which can lead the possible offender into perpetrating violent tendencies towards the person of their obsession and stalking. Quite possibly it is these types of stalking cases, which stem from domestic violence situations, which have been found to be the most lethal type of stalking activities.
