What are the criminological classification of criminals?

Criminologists classify criminals based on various criteria, including their motivations, methods, and psychological profiles. Common classifications include street criminals, who engage in direct, often violent crimes; white-collar criminals, who commit non-violent crimes for financial gain, typically in business settings; and organized criminals, who are part of structured groups engaging in illegal activities for profit. Additionally, offenders can be categorized as either habitual or occasional based on the frequency of their criminal behavior.
