Disorganized crime

Disorganized crime refers to criminal activities that lack a structured organization, often characterized by spontaneity and chaotic operations. Unlike organized crime, which is hierarchical and methodical (like drug cartels or mafia groups), disorganized crime involves individuals or small groups committing crimes without clear leadership or long-term planning. These activities can include theft, vandalism, or drug use, often resulting from social issues or economic desperation. Disorganized criminals typically act on impulse and may collaborate opportunistically rather than through a stable network, making their actions unpredictable and diverse.
