Does and says nothing to convince me. I'd want more positive statistics than just 2 cases (that may have already been close to solving)Nothing in my research has ever suggested that relatives off criminals also commit crimes. Infact, that's just like saying that there is a criminal gene....which is a load of horse poo!
