There are many factors that can be
associated with the cause of violent crime. Research suggests that some of the
factors include severe mental health abnormalities, children who are consistently
exposed to violence at home, firearm availability, the independent subculture of
violence, and the socialization process, just to name a few. In addition, it has
also been found that when homicide occurs, there is often a preexisting relationship
that is present. Some relationships include a romantic relationship, narcotic
seller/narcotic buyer relationship, or a gang rivalry. Despite the understanding of
the aforementioned, criminal justice professionals still have difficulty controlling
homicides. Review Chapter 10 in your primary text, and watch the video Murder
Capital USA Ganglands of Chicago, which discusses the high murder rates in Chicago
and focuses on contributing factors (Siegel, 2015; Danzo1212, 2013). In your paper,
