Men aged 19-20 are most likely to commit crime: Rob Henderson

Social scientist Rob K. Henderson said on the podcast that criminologists’ “age-crime curve” shows crime peaks around 19 or 20. Even controlling for income, a 20-year-old man is about 10 times more likely to be arrested for violent crime than a 60-year-old, he said. Young men take the most risks in every society, called “young male syndrome”.
