Violent Crimes

A violent crime is considered a crime that is carried out by an act of physical violence. Most violent crimes involve the use of a weapon, however this is not always the case as threat of violence is also considered to be a violent crime. Because these types of crimes endanger the lives, well-being, and safety of others, all violent crime offenders are prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.

Depending on the circumstances surrounding the crime, a violent crime can be tried as either a felony or a misdemeanor. Certain factors increase the severity of the crime, such as the use of a weapon, whether the victim sustained great bodily injury, or whether the offender has a prior criminal history.
