Why is everyone black, poor, or a minority?

I have watched many episodes over of the years, and all the episodes I've watched have been centered on young minorities victimizing others in their own community. Black on black crimes, poor on poor crimes, etc. You'd think Miami is a 3rd world country where the only way to survive is by committing crimes.

Has this show ever shown a middle class crime of any kind?

OP: Yes - there have been others. And in case you think this is the only type of demographic involving crime and murder, I suggest you watch Dateline, etc. - most of those crimes involve white people, often rich ones.

Because...they tend to be the ones involved in the average homicide? Just a wild guess...
