Abstract
A review of some of the underlying reasons for crime is presented, together with a perspective-setting view of the present status of crime in the United States. A statistical analysis of the number of repeaters is presented as the basis for a crime control system consisting of a transponder carried by each convicted person after he is released from confinement. Real-time tracking of these transponders is done by a computer-radio system; when a crime is committed a quick check shows at least who was not involved. Countermeasures and some social implications are also covered.Keywords
