Ans: C
Forensic nursing is expected to become one of the fastest growing nursing specialties of the 21st century because recent studies have noted the high rates of mental illness in jails and prisons. People with mental illness are not responsible for most crimes. They are vulnerable to crime, but this fact does not underlie the growth of forensic nursing.
