Pretty much 99.99% of crime is related to our evolutionary process, imo. The edge cases of mentally ill people etc are low, but otherwise racist/homophobic/theft crimes are all just tribalism/being afraid of the other/resource contention at the end of the day; society and its rules are just a patch on top of millennia of forming small groups and marching over to hit other neighbouring small groups with rocks.

Sentient life would be both impressive & scary in that it can theoretically optimise itself far, far beyond what we can. Then again it could go the other way too: aggressive nanobots that start disassembling humans getting into tribal-like wars with other groups of nanobots to fight over resources aka humans to melt down.
