CRIMINOLOGY: VIOLENT CRIMES
CRIMINOLOGY: VIOLENT CRIMES
1 | P a g e
A crime is said to have occurred when an individual or a group of individuals 
break law by any aggressive or violent means or by conducting any violent or aggressive 
act. Sometimes crime is said to have been committed if an individual causes harm to 
another individual or group by sheer means of omission, negligence etc. And in this 
respect the individual or group of individuals breaching a rule, or violating a law is said 
to have committed a criminal offense.  
Primarily crime can be broadly divided into two categories – property crime and 
violent crime. An individual is usually accused for committing property crime when 
he/she destroys, damages, or steals someone else’s belongings, or when someone 
vandalizes somebody else’s movable and immovable property and in this respect, in the 
United States property crimes are far more frequent than violent crimes (Montaldo, 
n.d.). Violent crimes, on the other hand, are more serious genres of crimes. Usually a 
violent crime is said to have been committed when “someone harms, attempts to harm, 
threatens to harm or even conspires to harm someone else. Violent crimes are offenses 
which involve force or threat of force, such as rape, robbery or homicide” (Montaldo, 
n.d.).  
It is a fact that these two kinds of crimes can be committed simultaneously by an 
individual in instances such as robbing someone’s car at gunpoint or vandalizing a shop 
with a shotgun. But it should be kept in mind that to identify the committing of a crime 
it is not always needed to look for direct involvement or violent action. Sometimes 
omission can be treated as crime. It is to be kept in mind that a “crime of omission is 
defined as the failure to act upon a legal duty or responsibility” (“Crimes of Omission”, 
2007). For an example running a stop sign can be considered as a crime as such crime 
although not directly harming any individual, can put the common public in danger 
(Montaldo, n.d.). Besides, negligence can also be termed as a crime on some occasion. 
For an example, if a patient is deprived of his/her medical care properly due to the 
negligence of the attending doctor or nurse, then the latter can be convicted of criminal 
offense due to negligence.  
Though it is a fact that both the genres of crime, property crime and violent 
crime, are considered to be serious, the latter is taken as a graver offense than the 
former one. According to FBI’s Uniform Crime Reporting Program (“Violent Crime”, 
n.d.), “violent crime is composed of four offenses: murder and nonnegligent 
manslaughter, forcible rape, robbery, and aggravated assault. Violent crimes are 
defined in the UCR Program as those offenses which involve force or threat of force.
