What is a violent crime?
Violent crimes are criminal acts that involve the use or threat of violence. In most cases, violence is used as a means to an end, especially during crimes such as rape and robbery. During the commission of a violent crime, the offender may or may not use a weapon. If the offender uses a weapon while committing a violent crime, the offense will usually be classified as felony.
Frequently Committed Violent Crimes
In California, commonly committed violent crimes include: robbery, armed robbery, assault, battery, murder, manslaughter, vehicular manslaughter, gang crimes, kidnapping, arson, domestic violence, stalking, hate crimes, carjacking, sexual assault, and terrorist threats.
California Violent Crime Legal Penalties
Once a person is convicted a violent crime, he/she may be punished with:
- imprisonment
- large fines
- community service
- probation
- parole

If the defendant has a prior criminal offense on his/her record, or if the defendant used a weapon while committing the crime, he/she may be subject to enhanced criminal charges and sentencing if convicted.
