So if Genetics is the driving factor does that mean that if a murder has 15 children, most of them will end up being murders also? I could understand that genetics will play a factor that they could be predisposed or susceptible more than others to wards criminal activities but I still think that if they were all adopted out to very stable and law abiding environments that this would play a bigger part in shaping there behavior.
