abstract="In this article we assess the spillover effect of occupationally embedded criminal markets on patterns of juvenile delinquency. We interviewed a respondent-driven sample of 34 juvenile car theft offenders in Montreal as well as a convenience sample of 13 incarcerated adolescents who also had been involved in car thefts. Subjects were asked to provide a portrait of their careers in car theft. Patterns of co-offending, criminal achievements, apprehension avoidance tactics, and occupational background of fathers are analysed. Joyriders (involved in temporary retention thefts) and jockeys (involved in theft-for-sale thefts) are compared across criminal career characteristics.<p />",
