In spring 2020, a 63-year-old homeless man in Camden, New Jersey was found brutally beaten and unresponsive. A 15-year-old boy and 17-year-old girl were soon charged with his murder; a few months later, three more juveniles ranging from 12- to 14-years-old were charged with murder and conspiracy to commit aggravated assault based on the suspicion that they also played a role in the man’s death.
First, based on what you have learned this week, propose five biological or psychological risk factors that you might expect to find among the youth responsible for this crime and explain your selections.
Second, select one developmental theory that you believe would be most relevant for understanding juvenile murder and justify your selection.
Finally, make an argument for whether you believe that trait and developmental theories can adequately explain young people who commit murder.
