PEOPLE IN LAW CASES

Narrator: The solicitor says why he thinks thefts occur, and then he gives his views on violence.

Solicitor: In thefts I would say that the strongest motive is not to work.

Oh, and very often there is drinking with the theft...

Interviewer: Could you give an example?

Solicitor: They leave the pub, they go out, they see а house which is in darkness with а couple of milk bottles on the doorstep, they think, "Right, we'll do that house and get а bit more beer money for tomorrow."

Interviewer: What about violence, it's one thing easy to explain.

Solicitor: I have very often found this. There is а pattern here too, especially the juvenile offenders, broken homes...

Interviewer: You mean they соme from broken homes...

Solicitor: Yes, from broken homes, or large, unhappy, rather poor families.
