    I'll say I don't normally judge faces on the street. But there are some faces that do look sketchy, that make you think: "man this guy's probably a criminal or dangerous!". I can't be sure what triggers it, but I think it has been suggested AI face scanners can tell criminals from noncriminals. That there are indeed facial features common to most criminals.

      "Concerns as face recognition tech used to 'identify' criminals" https://www.newscientist.com/article/2114900-concerns-as-face-recognition-tech-used-to-identify-criminals/

      There's been some research suggesting it may be possible. We need to see whether further research confirms it or not. There was similar research suggesting AI could tell homosexuality with higher than chance odds from faces too.

      Remember like 50% of the genome is used in the brain. It isn't implausible that some of the genes involved in face structure are reused in the brain, and could affect behavior.

      As for bad boys, no. An ugly bad boy will be sent to jail quite quickly especially if he is abusive. A chad can have bad behavior and get lighter sentences, and even if he's a serial killer chad many girls will actually come from all over the nation to have sex with him in prison.
