Zuma was born in the poor, sparsely populated area of Inkandla in the eastern province of KwaZulu-Natal. His policeman father died when Zuma was 3, and his mother found work as a domestic servant in Durban. Zuma was working full-time doing odd jobs by 15.

Any policeman will attest that a typical career thief prefers to minimize violence, which raises pressure on the police to catch him and increases severity of the punishment if he is convicted. But young South African muggers and burglars don't just rob for the money. Many want to inflict pain on their victims, beating, raping or killing them. Of the 200,000 robberies every year, more than half are classed as "aggravated," meaning the victim was also assaulted. A friend warned me before I arrived in South Africa nine months ago, "This is political crime," meaning the violence...
