Answer:
Law will control criminal behaviour to a certain extent by which the consequences has a fearful affect to some people. "If I did this and got caught...this could happen to me...should I take the chance?" Is what a criminal could be thinking before he/she commits an offence. However there could be a motivation behind it, such as a severe drug addiction which would hinder that fear of the consequences due to the addiction.

The first answer tells part of the extent that the law controls behavior. It also controls by incarcerating the convicted and preventing them from victimizing the public, at least for a time. Unfortunately, criminal law is very limited in its effect on criminal behavior. So many people with criminal intentions are either desperate and think that it's a chance worth taking; others believe that they're smarter than the law. The last group are the easiest to catch.
