Lead exposure, especially in childhood, can damage cognitive function & result in propensity to anger / violence. While correlation isn't always causation, widespread exposure to lead does correlate to the rise & fall of the crime rate.

It's actually been posited that the drop in crime in the 90s is directly related to the elimination of lead from gasoline. Lower lead levels in children lead to healthier and less aggressive brains.
