Case study: In some ways, victims of crimes are a diverse lot including the rich and the poor, the young and the old, and men as well as women. This diversity aside, however, crime victims are more likely to be young, nonwhite, male, divorced or never married, low income, and unemployed (Truman, 2011; Elias, 1986). Thus in many ways the profile of victims matches that of defendants.
