From 379 persons who have made offence having various mental frustration, financial straits have been objectively confirmed in 16,2 % of cases, adverse living conditions - in 2,9 % of the cases, the compelled change of a residence - in 1,2 % of cases, disputed relations in 10,6 % of cases, an antisocial environment - in 30,1 % of cases. The share of having negative social and environmental influence among patients having made property crimes, was 62, 2 %, hooligan-like actions of 48,9 %, offences against the person - 62,6 %, sexual - 27,3 %, other offences - 64,1 %.
