A. Some crime statistics are regarded as being more reliable than others. B Both the media and members of the public tend to exaggerate about crime, C. Official statistics that show that crime is falling do not stop people from worrying about it. D. There are several reasons why people have fears about crime. E. Many members of the public worry more about crime than any other issue.
