Answer:

Abstract. Public perceptions of crime are valuable to policy makers because how the public perceives issues such as the seriousness of crime, fear of crime, the severity of penalties, and specific crime issues can shape the actions of legislators, who strive to respond to their constituents' concerns.Jul 5, 2022
