Crimes can be grouped into different categories depending on the basis been used to categorise it. Some of these basis include

Everything that occurs on this earth has a reason. As mentioned earlier crimes are as a result of a circumstance or condition initiating it.It is therefore very necessary for anyone who wants to be able to figure a way of controlling crime to first of all try and identify what actually are causing or pushing people into crime. It is a fact that the punishing of people who commit crimes to serve as a deterrent to others is one way of preventing crime and maintaining order in our societies but the best way is to know what actually starts these crimes and try to stop those things so that they are unable to generate or lead anyone to crime. Personally I made some researches and found these under listed points as some of the causes or things that lead people to crime. These causes depend on the individual committing the crime.

Taking unemployment into consideration it is very common to have communities with high rate of unemployment toping the "charts" when it comes to crime rates .You will agree with me that the youths are the most vibrant age groups and therefore if there is no form of good and legal employments in their communities to engage them selves in, in order to earn some income, the only option left for them is create jobs for themselves sine the authorities in their communities have failed to do so. When this happens a great percentage them will think of nothing either than these criminal acts which they believe can earn them quick and big cash. This type of case is very serious especially when majority of them do not have any form of skills such as sewing, playing football e.t.c to engage in .

Most countries in the world also have their government or public sector workers as the least paid workers. This in a long run poses a great danger to the state especially when workers who handle very confidential documents and great deal of money at their work places. It is here that the problem of in adequate salaries proofs to be another cause of crime, which many have overlooked. This is because these workers get tempted a lot by the volume of money they handle and are forced to start stealing some of these monies and falsify documents to be able to get something extra aside their scanty salaries or income to supplement it. In most cases the crimes committed as a result of this are embezzlement and forgery. Charity they say begins at home. When parents fail to perform their duties effectively as far training and raising their children the right way is concerned, the children end up growing with certain undesirable characters such as theft , bullying e.t.c.and these can develop into very dangerous criminal acts such as armed-robbery and assault.
