Am I Really the 24th Most Influential Criminologist of all time?

 So - in 2020 I've been ranked the 25th most influential criminal justice (AKA criminal justice discipline) expert in the world - of all time. (archived). My ranking went up a few days later making me one of the top 100,000 world influencers of all time! (archived).

But why? 

I'm ranked even higher in Criminology as my supposed sub-discipline!

Whilst flattered I wonder just how accurate that really is: https://academicinfluence.com/people/mike-sutton-1

I did influence the cartoon below though

The evil Orange Turd @realDonaldTrump has personally orphaned over 500 children! Many of them are under 5 years of age!
