    During this “Gilded Age” business men have been creating large business organizations known as trusts, this ingenuity of these entrepreneurs has been earning them the title “Captains of Industry” yet their ruthlessness in the building of their industries and wealth at the expense of their competitors has been earning some of these men the title of “Robber Barons”.

    According to Tedesco, members of E.N.T. are “very brazen” in person and on social media about their involvement in crime. (2 RT 354: 14-23.) Tedesco has interviewed “dozens” of members “who readily admitted that” the way they make their money is by “breaking into people’s homes.” (RT 354:27-355:1.) In his “conversations with different members of the gang, the crimes appear to be very targeted; home invasions against people of Asian descent and of Indian descent.” (2 RT 355: 5-8.) It is not uncommon for E.N.T. to cover their faces in conducting robberies. (2 RT 358: 5-17.) E.N.T. has gone outside Oakland to commit crimes, all over the Bay Area from Los Gatos to Stockton.

    The author took into account the differing patterns of crimes in the context of gender and considered empirical studies in this regard. The author began by explaining that there are two ways of recording statistics about crime. One is to take into account the government statistics which are by no means conclusive. Second is to conduct the statistical analysis of victims as per the category of crimes that took place against them. He observed that the latter has recorded the crime rate four times higher than the one recorded by the governmental reports. The difference arises because the government records the statistics as per offenders whereas the victims statistics identify the victims of the crimes.…

    Everyone’s childhood plays an extremely important role in determining who they will become and who they grow up to be. Your childhood molds and shapes you in every way. But not everyone’s childhood is happy and picture perfect, as some kids grow up in an environment that can set them up for hate and failure, which can ruin their chances for success. The childhood people have is the base that they build on to form their psychological base in adulthood (Vronsky, 2007). So one extremely interesting factor contributing to the makings of a female serial killer is abuse that is experienced in their childhoods. The FBI study has stated and confirmed that most to all serial killers come from an unstable,…

    In our society today women that are employed alongside men. These positions were at one point in history exclusive only to men. In more recent time women that have chosen to go into Law enforcement have there difficulties. Issues that range from sexual harassment to lower wages because they are viewed as the weaker gender or not qualified to perform the duties and job that a man can.

    Crime Is Gendered

    • 697 Words
    • 3 Pages

    Crime is most certainly gendered; meaning it has biased toward the male or female sex. An explanation for this can come from an understanding about which crimes are likely to be associated with men and which are more likely to be associated with women. There are certain crimes where women have little or no involvement most of the time. For example, men tend to be victims of violent crimes. This is a statement proven by sources such as the National Crime Victimization Survey or even the Uniform Crime Report. However, Britton explains that the NCVS is much more accurate than the UCR. The NCVS provides reliable information on some of the most violent crimes like rape and assault, to minor crimes like theft or burglary. Statistics clearly show that men are most likely to be victims or be involved in violent crimes, with the exception of rape. This is just one example of how crime is gendered.…

    Women Who Commit Crimes

    French Novelist Albert Camus wrote, “We all carry within us our places of exile, our crimes, and our ravages. But our task is not to unleash them on the world; it is to fight them in ourselves”. Crimes are crimes and should not be differentiated on the basis of gender motivations since they are different for each. It was God who made the woman by nature mild, sober, soft, lovely and to be loved with little exception. Even though women are believed to be less violent than men, there are still a percentage of violent acts committed by women. This is in part to the overwhelming beliefs by society that crimes are the domain of men and women are viewed to be more nurturing in that regard.…

    Gender Gap In Crime

    • 301 Words
    • 2 Pages

    The gender gap in crime rate is clearly visible in the fact that the women are generally involved in minor property related crimes (fraud, forgery, larceny and embezzlement) and substance abuse offences (drug influenced deviance), while the men are involved in the white collar crimes (Schwartz and Steffensmeier, 2008). The economic vulnerability and patriarchal power relations in the society are the push factors for increasing involvement of women in less serious crimes (Steffensmeier, 1980; Miller, 1986; Daly, 1989). The main causes of crime among women are lack of education, economic and financial pressure, domestic strife, high rate of divorce and insecurity (Klein, 1973; Henderson, 2001; Davies, 1991; Potter, 1978).…
