Crisis of Crime
Crisis of Crime aims to educate about criminology and criminal justice reform. Is our Criminal Justice System broken, or working as intended? I suppose it would depend on who you ask. Join me as I explore criminological theory as well as topics such as systemic racism, discrimination, and reforms.

Episode 10
In this episode, I discuss the murder of Jeffrey Curley, not only how the crime happened, but also how it can be explained using the Routine Activities Theory - specifically the idea of capable guardianship. Additionally, I briefly discuss shared responsibility and revictimization in the criminal justice system.
