I’m trying to study for my Criminal Justice course and I need some help to understand this question.

Based on your reading and understanding of titled: Measuring Delinquency (Links to an external site.), answer the following questions:

  • what does the UCR , the Juvenile Court statistics and self report studies show about youth crime in the United States?
  • In educated opinion based on personal observations and/or independent research, what is the leading contributor of juvenile crime in the USA? Fully explain the basis of your response.
