DIFFERENT TYPES OF CRIME

DIFFERENT TYPE OF CRIMES

Before we proceed, let me take some time out to define crime by various people and agencies.

GOOGLE: An action or omission which constitutes an offence and is punishable by law. "shoplifting was a serious crime"

WIKIPEDIA: In ordinary language, the term crime denotes an unlawful act punishable by a state. The term "crime" does not, in modern criminal law, have any simple and universally accepted definition, though statutory definitions have been provided for certain purposes. The most popular view is that crime is a category created by law; in other words, something is a crime if declared as such by the relevant and applicable law.  One proposed definition is that a crime or offence (or criminal offence) is an act harmful not only to some individual or individuals but also to a community, society or the state ("a public wrong"). Such acts are forbidden and punishable by law.

Crimes are defined by criminal law, which refers to a body of federal and state rules that prohibit behavior the government deems harmful to society. If one engages in such behavior, they may be guilty of a crime and prosecuted in criminal court.
