Casey could have been selling weed and he might have shorted somebody an ounces or on their money. Casey could have been selling on someone’s spot or he was not paying debt he owed. Casey could have done someone wrong and they retaliated by sexually assaulting, strangulating his girlfriend. Carla could have stopped smoking weed and separated herself from Casey to make sure that she was not in danger. Carla could have been selling drugs and nobody

A study concerning integrated theory where data used came from two waves of surveys that contained multiple life domain, offending, and demographic measures, examined if life domains could predict victimization with contemporaneous effects, lagged effects, interactive effects, and a measure of prior victimization (Gubb, 2015). The results from the research found a significant level of support for the fourth hypothesis, the temporal ordering of victimization and offending. The most consistent and important findings discovered related to peer domain, offending, and prior victimization variables. The research pointed to the influence of a reduced model where victimization might be predicted generally by facets of routine activity theory and involvement in risky lifestyle (Gubb,
