Assess the validity of situational crime prevention techniques for reducing crime Situational crime prevention involves developing tactics to reduce or eliminate a specific crime problem. These include tactics to increase the effort required to commit crime, such as putting unbreakable glass on storefronts, locking gates, and fencing yards, ft can also involve increasing the risks of crime through better security efforts. Reducing the rewards of crime is designed to lessen the value of crime to the potential criminal. Crime may be reduced or prevented if we can communicate to people the wrongfulness of their behavior and how it is harmful to society. Crime may be reduced by making it difficult for people to excuse their criminal behavior by saying things like "1 didn't know that was illegal" or "1 had no choice."
