This points to a new scientist article https://www.newscientist.com/article/2186512-exclusive-uk-po...

Favourite bit. "Looking at this data, the software found nearly 1400 indicators that could help predict crime, including around 30 that were particularly powerful. These included the number of crimes an individual had committed with the help of others"

Wow, so people that commit crime are more likely to commit crime.
