My name is Dove and I'm a senior in high school doing my English project on what creates a criminal. My interest in criminals was sparked from watching crime shows such as Dexter, Bates Motel, Criminal Minds, and Law & Order. I have always wondered what caused people to commit horrible crimes such as murder, kidnapping, and rape. I decided to conduct in-depth research on the criminal mind, interview sociologists and criminologists, sit in on trials, and propose a new theory of how to predict future repeat offenders. I spoke with an AP Psychology class and told the students about my research and answered questions they had about the genetic makeup of repeat offenders.
