One recent study of police records showed that the number of crimes committed in 1990 rose 10 percent over the previous year. Yet, another study showed that the number of people who reported being victims of a crime in 1990 rose 30 percent from the previous year
Which one of the following resolves the apparent paradox?
A)People were more honest about the crimes they committed in 1990 than in the previous year.
B)The proportion of corporate crimes increased from 1989 to 1990.
C)The number of criminals who were in turn victimized themselves rose from 1989 to 1990.
D)The proportion of crimes that victimized several people at once increased from 1989 to 1990
E)Because of worsening social conditions, people felt more victimized in 1990 than in 1989

Pre-think : some of the crimes involve several of victims,i.g. a heist involves 10 victims hurt during the gun fight.
(D) is along the line with this pre-thinking.
