The justification that behavioral genetic evidence provides in criminality remains a wonder. Scientific evidence suggests that a decreased activity of the enzyme monoamine oxidase (MAOA-L) dubbed the warrior gene surges the possibility for aggressive, antisocial behavior and increased criminality. Ever since the human genome project was completed, breakthrough in genetics and biotechnology are now advancing at a speedy rate. Advancement in genetics and biotechnology has opened a frontier to carry out investigation on the influence of genetics on human behavior at the molecular-genetic level. The interplay between genes and susceptibility to diseases has extensively been accepted, but, the similar link between genes and predisposition to criminal behavior is yet to gain a wide acceptance. Notwithstanding this cynicism, biological studies have revealed that relatives of convicted criminals have higher chances of criminality, suggesting a genetic association to certain criminal behavioral tendencies. Emerging data and evidence indicates that without recourse to genetics, there would be a limited opportunity in elucidating the mechanism and reason for criminal, aggressive and antisocial behavior of some individuals. In this light, reports from some scientific finding revealed that monoamine oxidase A (MAOA) provides the strongest association between genetic variation and aggressive behavior particularly low gene variant monoamine oxidase A (MAOA-L) which has been introduced by experts as evidence for criminal behavior. Beside a satisfaction of scientific curiosity, genetic research portends the potential to contribute to preventive measures and investigation into the genetic etiological correlation of criminal behavior may result to the opening of a new frontier for treatment and intervention. Peer Review History: Received: 27 February 2022; Revised: 22 March; Accepted: 28 April, Available online: 15 May 2022 Academic Editor: Dr. Asia Selman Abdullah, Pharmacy institute, University of Basrah, Iraq, asia_abdullah65@yahoo.com UJPR follows the most transparent and toughest ‘Advanced OPEN peer review’ system. The identity of the authors and, reviewers will be known to each other. This transparent process will help to eradicate any possible malicious/purposeful interference by any person (publishing staff, reviewer, editor, author, etc) during peer review. As a result of this unique system, all reviewers will get their due recognition and respect, once their names are published in the papers. We expect that, by publishing peer review reports with published papers, will be helpful to many authors for drafting their article according to the specifications. Auhors will remove any error of their article and they will improve their article(s) according to the previous reports displayed with published article(s). The main purpose of it is ‘to improve the quality of a candidate manuscript’. Our reviewers check the ‘strength and weakness of a manuscript honestly’. There will increase in the perfection, and transparency.
