Probably because they are depressed, angry, or there is something wrong with them. and sometimes because they are trying to make money quickly for various reasons. There are plenty of wealthy highly respected criminals among us. Or maybe because they were talked in to it by the group of people they hang around.

Answer 3

Okay, to answer this, let's define a crime: a crime is an offense against the state or federal Government, in which either an offense was committed against a victim or the Government itself. Crimes are either infractions, which carry no jail time, but can carry fines or suspension of privileges, such as driving, fishing, etc., depending on the infraction; or a crime can be a misdemeanor or a felony. So why would someone commit a crime? 1. It might have been unintentional or the offender might not have known it was a crime (ignorance); 2. The perpetrator wanted to benefit from the crime in some way (financially, sexually, or out of hatred of the victim); 3. The perp thought he could get away with the offense, and perhaps earn the respect of others ("street cred," gang affiliation, etc.) What are the reasons for laws which make offenses a crime? They are offenses which somehow deprives a person of his life, health, security, sexuality, money, and personal belongings; or they deprive the Government of the same. The laws are in place to protect the welfare of the community or the Government.
