I also got 420. Wonder if it's set to show the same result to everyone.

@user1306322 or perhaps we are just way over the board, but I don't think so I did with a different name and got it below 200.

I got 298 with my real name. So close to being executed. I wonder how in the world can that software determine my crime coefficient with only my name?

And anyone got a coefficient below 100? Is that possible with this sfotware? And, just like Sibyl, can the software determine the crime coefficient of itself? 420, probably? +1 for Kirito Kamui if he can force this software to do the same as what he forced Sibyl to do before his death.

<p>When a person's criminal rating reaches a certain point (a high number, somewhere in the range 200~400) and they are not yet considered criminal, it's still counted as "dangerous" or "very likely to become criminal soon", and so they are taken away for hospitalization and psychological treatment.</p>

<p>In the first episodes, a woman suffers a trauma caused by criminal actions around her. Her criminal rating spikes to a dangerously high value, at some point she even holds a weapon in her hands, which is as close to becoming a criminal as it gets. Naturally, she would fall into "dangerous, but not yet criminal" category.</p>

<p>Sometimes people are shot on place if the risk is too high. Sometimes a detective makes a different decision, like apprehend such a person and take them into custody, or just leave them. You should see the rest of the series to find out more on that.</p>

<p>I watched the first two episodes, and the anime was really interesting. Why are people who have a high number on the psycho-pass shot? In episode one, the victim was shot because she had a huge number on the psycho-pass. It doesn't make any sense to me.  </p>

Why are people who haven't done anything wrong taken into custody?

Crime Coefficient is a measure of a target's probability/propensity to commit a crime. The MWPSB uses it as a measurement to determine if a target is a latent criminal or otherwise.

It is calculated and determined by the stress level (Hue), and other biological readings of a person via cymatic scan through the Sibyl System.

# Level of Crime Coefficient

* Under 100 - Suspect is not a target for enforcement action. The trigger of Dominator will be locked.
* 100 to 300 - Suspect is classified as a latent criminal and is a target for enforcement action. Dominator is set to Non-lethal Paralyzer mode. Suspect can then be knocked out using the Dominator.
* Over 300 - Suspect poses a serious threat to the society. Lethal force is authorized. Dominator will automatically switch to Lethal Eliminator. Suspect that is hit by Lethal Eliminator will bloat and explode.
