nature or that is confided to me in my official capacity will be kept ever

animosities or friendships to influence my decisions. With the
compromise for crime and with relentless prosecution or criminals, I will
enforce the law courteously and appropriately without fear or favor

1.Demonological theory
- oldest perspective theory
- This theory promoted the notion that persons should not held responsible
for their actions when they do evil things because their body is possessed by evil
spirits.
2. Classical theory
-People are rational people, have free will

things can be earned through conformity (hedonism)
Classicist have 4 good reason why delinquent persons and offenders
should be punished

- criminals have many stigmata (distinctive physical features)
- Criminals are atavistic beings (having mentality of primitive people,
incapable of living in modern society)
-Criminals are classified as epileptic, insane and inborn
Note: this theory was flawed as it was based only on his findings from
examining criminals. He did not conduct studies on non-offenders’ characters.
2. General Inferiority Theory/Hooton’s Theory
-Earnest Hooton
-Crime is a result of impact of environment upon low-grade
human organisms and that criminals were originally inferior people
-Crimes exist because there are some inferior people who are
responsible for them
-Criminals should be permanently exiled to self-governing
reservations, isolated from the society, sterilized to prevent future
offspring's.

-Body type affects a person’s entire personality or temperament
A. ENDOMORPHS – fat, round, soft
B. MESOMORPHS – athletic, muscular physique
C. ECTOMORPHS – skinny with lean and fragile bodies
4. Genetic Theory
-Delinquency is committed by people who have abnormal genetic
structure or chromosomal abnormalities.
-DNA is the transmitter of genetic materials (genes)
-EXTRA Y chromosomes is responsible for aggressiveness and thus,
criminal activity.
C. Psychological Theories
These theories assume that:
A. Delinquency is a result of internal, underlying disturbances
B. These disturbances develop in childhood and tend to become permanent features
of the individual character.
C. Since the individual has problems, he or she must be the focus of attention if the
problem is to be solved.
