Crime is typically not patterned

Violent acts may occur in places throughout the United States, but this does not mean the acts themselves are random

Answer 1

I believe the answer is: Crime is typically Not patterned.

It is the other way around, crime is usually leave similar pattern regardless of who were caught doing it. For example, for robbery , most of the perpetrators are predominantly belong in lower income bracket. Sociologist correlate the pressure to fulfill their basic needs as a catalyst that push them to do the criminal act.
