Answer to Question 1

One of the controversies about having victimless crimes on the books is whether the government ought to be controlling what some people feel are personal or moral issues, such as gambling, drug use, or prostitution. A second controversy is that, because victimless crimes are illegal, people sometimes commit additional crimes, called secondary crimes, while committing the victimless crime. Finally, victimless crimes are related to public corruption in that bribes are sometimes given to the police or other public officials to ignore the illegal flow of drugs, sex, or gambling.

Answer to Question 2

First, police and detectives must be highly educated and technologically sophisticated in order for them to understand the crimes they confront and how to catch the criminals. Second, our understanding of crime fighting must encompass a global view of law enforcement.
