Assaults Crime
Assault crimes are categorized based on severity, intent, and the presence of weapons. Common types of assault crimes include:
Aggravated Assault
A more severe attack that causes serious bodily harm. Often involves the use of a weapon (knife, gun, etc.).
Sexual Assault
Any non-consensual sexual act or contact. Includes groping, molestation, or rape. Example: Forcing sexual activity without consent.
Simple Assault
A minor physical attack or threat that causes fear of harm. Typically involves no weapon and minor injuries. Example: Slapping, punching, or pushing someone.
Cash Bail
The accused pays the full bail amount in cash. If they attend all court hearings, the money is refunded (minus any fees).
Surety Bond (Bail Bond)
A bail bondsman or a third-party company pays the bail on behalf of the accused for a fee (usually 10-15% of the bail amount).
Bail
Bail is a legal process that allows an accused person to be released from custody while awaiting trial, usually by paying a set amount of money as a guarantee that they will appear in court.
Drinking And Driving Offence
Drinking and driving, commonly referred to as Driving Under the Influence (DUI) or Driving While Intoxicated (DWI), is a serious crime involving operating a vehicle while impaired by alcohol or drugs.
DUI/DWI
Definition: Operating a vehicle with a Blood Alcohol Concentration (BAC) above the legal limit (usually 0.08% in most countries).
OWI/OVI
Similar to DUI/DWI but includes not only cars but also motorcycles, boats, and other vehicles. Some states/countries use this term instead of DUI/DWI.
General Mischief
Any act that intentionally causes damage or inconvenience to another person or their property. Example: Breaking a neighbor’s window for fun.
Mischief
Mischief is a criminal offense that involves intentionally causing damage to property, interfering with others' rights, or disrupting public peace. It is often considered a lesser offense than theft or robbery but can still lead to legal consequences.
Robbery
Robbery is a serious criminal offense that involves theft combined with force, intimidation, or threats. Unlike simple theft or burglary, robbery requires direct confrontation between the offender and the victim.
Aggravated Robbery
A robbery involving serious injuries, use of a deadly weapon, or multiple offenders. Example: A group of robbers beats a victim before stealing their wallet.
Armed Robbery
Committing robbery while carrying a weapon (e.g., gun, knife, or any dangerous object).
Child Sexual Abuse
Definition: Any sexual activity involving a minor (under the legal age of consent). Examples: An adult engaging in sexual acts with a child.
Rape
Definition: Non-consensual sexual intercourse achieved through force, threats, coercion, or when the victim is unable to give consent (e.g., unconscious or intoxicated).
Sexual Assault
Definition: Any non-consensual sexual contact or behavior that does not necessarily involve penetration.
Sexual Offence
Sexual offenses involve any form of non-consensual sexual activity, exploitation, or abuse. These crimes vary in severity and legal definitions depending on the jurisdiction.
Youth Offence
Youth offenses refer to crimes committed by juveniles (usually individuals under 18 years old). These offenses can range from minor violations to serious crimes, and legal systems often focus on rehabilitation rather than punishment for young offenders.
Status Offenses
Crimes that are only considered offenses because of the offender's age. Examples: Underage drinking (consuming alcohol before the legal age).
