  1. Criminal [videorecording]

    Burbank, CA : Warner Home Video, [2005].

    A $750,000 one-night score awaits Richard and Rodrigo if they can flimflam an antique currency collector - a ruse soon packed with more twists than a box of pretzels.

  2. Criminal : the truth about why people do bad things

    Gash, Tom
    [United Kingdom] : Allen Lane, an imprint of Penguin Books, 2016.

    There are two myths about crime. In one, the criminal act is a selfish choice, and tough punishment the only solution. In the other, the system is at fault, and perpetrators will change only when society reforms. Both these narratives are wrong. Interweaving conversations and stories of crime with findings from the latest research, Tom Gash dispels the myths that inform our views of crime, from the widespread misconception that poverty causes crime, to the belief that tough sentencing reduces it. He examines the origins of criminal behaviour, the ebb and flow of crime across the last century, and the effectiveness of various government crack-downs and in doing so reveals that crime is both less rational and much easier to reduce than many believe. Can we suspend our knee-jerk reactions, let go of cherished myths and embrace the truth about crime?There are two myths about crime.
