Must be something in the water..
It’s actually insane how much lead levels correlate to how much crime is committed in an area
The levels of lead in gasoline at the time are thought to be one of the main contributing factors as to why we had an explosion of serial killers in the 1970s
I see this a lot, but idk how well supported it is. The insane crime rates and changes in crime level from then to now are some of the most studied societal phenomenons and there have been a shit ton of theories. I don't think there is anything approaching a consensus.
