lead and crime

[Ulty]

I finally got around to reading the article in the OP. Very interesting. One interesting tidbit of info that I recall from my criminal justice 101 professor back in the 90s was that he said if he ran the prison system, one of the first things he would do would be to hire nutritionists and even use chelation therapy to start eliminating heavy metals from prisoners' bodies as that crap has such a harmful effect on the brain and can influence criminal thinking. I think chelation therapy has mostly been dismissed as bunk, but if the data in this article is true, my professor was on the right track. I'd never heard that same argument made until now.
