Violent crimes include murder, assault, battery, robbery, vehicular assault, and harassment. Depending on the severity of allegations, these crimes can range in severity from misdemeanors to the most serious of felonies. The penalty for a conviction for a violent crime will depend on the severity of the allegations, the severity of the injuries, whether the alleged victim was “at risk” or a member of a protected class, whether the situation was aggravated by use of a weapon, and whether the accused was on parole, probation, or had a previous record.
