Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

How are victims affected by crime?

While the short-term effects of crime can be severe, most people don't suffer any long-term harm. Occasionally, people do develop long-term problems, such as depression or anxiety-related illnesses, and a few people have a severe, long-lasting reaction after a crime, known as post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
