I think it is quite possible to predict that some people are more likely to become criminals. For example, take a young kid and perform a traumatizing mock arrest on him. It helps if this kid is from a community where public-police trust has been historically low, and doubly so when general public-police trust is at an all-time low. At best, he will be sociologically labeled a criminal and tend towards such. At worst, he&#x27;ll consciously rebel against the inhuman system that has prejudged him as a mere problem to be managed.
