Those with a cognitive, physical, emotional, or sensory disability are more likely to be arrested by the time they reach their late 20s than their peers without a disability. That finding comes from data published in the American Journal of Public Health , which analyzed data on 9,000 Americans who were born between 1980 and 1984.
