The paper assignment is to explain a criminological theory that has been discussed in this class, and then use the theory to explain a crime that has been reported in a newspaper or magazine from the perspective of the theorist.
The crime must have occurred on or after April 6, 2020
The account of the crime (from the newspaper or magazine can be an online version) must name an individual/individuals who were arrested for committing the crime. (It cannot be an article stating that police are searching for suspects in the commission of a crime). The individuals do not need to have been convicted just arrested. (For the purposes of this assignment, assume that the named individual did indeed commit the crime). The article should mention the date of the crime, the suspects age, and where the crime was committed.
You may use ONLY ONE of the following theories:
Mertons Anomie
Agnews General Strain
Sutherlands Differential Association
Hirschis Social Bond
Gottfredson & Hirschis General Theory
