If current rates of offending remain unchanged, the number of teens who commit murder and other serious violent crimes shall increase, if only because of the demographic turnaround in the population at risk.

这里关键是对if only because的理解。if only because =even if the only reason is that...

全句翻译:如果目前的犯罪率保持不变,即使仅凭犯罪风险人口数量的转变(指增加)这一原因,犯下谋杀和其他严重暴力犯罪的青少年人数一定会增加。

我再给你提供个外媒例句:

1. It is therefore quite clear that these new sources are of considerable importance, if only because of the energy they emit.

因此,很明显,即使仅是因为它们释放的能量,这些新能源也是相当重要的。

2. Friends are an important source of advice, if only because their good faith can be presumed.

仅仅因为我们会认为朋友是真诚的这一条,朋友也是建议的重要来源。
