Can victims of crime be partially or totally responsible for commission of crime?

Victims of crime cannot be held legally responsible for the commission of the crime against them, as they did not commit the offense. However, in some contexts, discussions around victim behavior may arise, particularly in analyzing factors that contributed to the crime, such as negligence or provocation. This does not absolve the perpetrator of responsibility; rather, it can inform prevention strategies and societal attitudes. Ultimately, criminal responsibility lies solely with the individual who commits the act.
