VIOLENT CRIMES
Violent crimes are serious criminal offenses. They are criminal acts that involve the use or threat of violence. During the commission of a violent crime, the offender may or may not use a weapon. If the offender uses a weapon while committing the crime, the punishment in California will be severe.
Some violent crimes include armed robbery, assault, battery, murder, manslaughter, gang crimes, kidnapping, domestic violence, stalking, hate crimes, carjacking, sexual assault, burglary and terrorist threats.
The consequences for a violent crime conviction vary depending on the offense and the circumstances surrounding the offense, such as the offender's prior record or if a weapon was used in the commission of the crime. Some convictions carry mandatory sentencing requirements including imprisonment; others merely impose a fine, community service, or court-ordered anger management classes on the convicted person.
