Abstract

Computer criminals are compared to non-computer criminals in a 2004 sample of state and Federal prison inmates. Offenders are compared on their age, race, gender, and education. Computer criminals are found to be younger, more white, more female, and more educated than their non-criminal counterparts. Subsets of computer criminals are then compared to each other using the same four demographic variables.
