Types of Violent Crimes and Their Penalties
Violent crimes are those that involve physical force against others as well as property damage. These crimes are heavily prosecuted to deter others from committing them and to take violators off the streets. However, these charges are often rushed to a conclusion and may involve any number of mistakes, such as fabricated evidence, false witnesses, illegal police tactics, and shoddy investigations. As a result, many individuals are charged and falsely imprisoned for crimes they did not commit.
To protect your rights, it is vital that you have an attorney in your corner who knows how to uncover crucial issues that could lead to a false conviction.
Violent crimes include offenses such as:
- Murder
- Manslaughter
- Homicide
- Arson
- Domestic violence
- Assault
- Battery
- Carjacking
- False imprisonment
- Terrorist activity
Penalties can range from a year to life in prison or the death penalty, heavy fines, probation, and a permanent criminal record.
