Answer to Question 1

Jack Katz wrote the Seductions of Crime, in which he argues that there are immediate benefits to crime. These seductions of crime are situational inducements that directly precede the commission of a crime and persuade individuals to engage in crime. Choosing crime can help satisfy personal needs, such as the need for money or even the need for a thrill. Crimes can also help alleviate the strain that individuals experience. People are most likely to commit crime if they do not fear the risk of apprehension or the social consequences of crime.
