91热爆

Criminal behaviour costs the country around 拢60 billion every year, according to 91热爆 Office research.
Is it possible to prevent crime by understanding the root causes of offending behaviour?
Sally Tilt and Dr Kerensa Hocken are forensic psychologists who work in prisons.
Their role is to help people in prison to look at the harm they鈥檝e caused to other people, understand why it happened and work out how to make changes to prevent further harm after they鈥檝e been released.
In Behind the Crime, they take the time to understand the life of someone whose crimes have led to harm and, in some cases, imprisonment.
In this episode they talk to Duewaine who spent the best part of 20 years in and out of prison for a series of hundreds, possibly thousands of robberies.
This is the story of a man for whom crime became a habit. On the face of it, his offending was blindly antisocial and repeatedly harmful.
Digging into Duewaine鈥檚 formative years, we can see how these patterns of behaviour were formed, as Duewaine went from a child who was a promising footballer, loved dinosaurs and wanted to become a palaeontologist, to committing prolific crimes and wasting years and years of his life in prison.
And we discover the horrific incident that transformed Duewaine into the reliable, devoted father we meet today.
The job of the forensic psychologists is to dig deep into Duewaine鈥檚 story, to understand the sequence of external influences that led him to repeated imprisonment.
