Answer to Question 1

Answer: FALSE

Answer to Question 2

 Arrest rates for both violent crime and property crime peak in the late teens and the rates have fallen dramatically by the time people reach middle age.
 Men make up about half of the general population, but in 2012, they accounted for 63 percent of arrests for property crimes.
 Sociological research has long shown that people of lower social position are involved in most arrests for street crime
 With regard to property crime, whites represent 68 percent of all arrests, and African Americans account for 29 percent. But in proportion to their share of the population (about 13 percent), African Americans are more likely than whites to be arrested.
