Kevin is in his mid-20s. He has a strong build, a large set of teeth, a prominent jaw, and high cheekbones. He has been in a few
fights in his neighborhood during his teens. He has recently committed a felony, and is now facing a criminal trial. Keeping the positivist theory in mind, what do you conclude? 1.Kevin has made a rational decision to commit such crimes.
2.Kevin has committed such crimes because he is aware of the benefits of the crimes.
3.Kevin is unaware of the consequences of his criminal actions.
4.Kevin is an atavist born with physical traits that may compel him to commit crimes.
5.Kevin's friends and peers have encouraged him to commit crimes by labeling him a criminal.
The correct answer is number 4) Kevin is an atavist born with physical traits that may compel him to commit crimes.
Keeping the positivist theory in mind, what we conclude is that Kevin is an atavist born with physical traits that may compel him to commit crimes.
When we refer to criminology terms, the positivist theory expresses that criminals are born, not made. This means that criminals are born with the tendency of committing crimes due to personal factors and traits. They are propense to commit criminal acts because that is their nature. In this case, Kevin has the physical characteristics that make him appear like a tough gay: strong build, a large set of teeth, a prominent jaw, and high cheekbones. And hee has already been in a few fights in his neighborhood during his teens.
