Violent Crimes
A violent crime is any crime in which the alleged offender uses or threatens to use violent force upon the victim. Sometimes violence is used in order to commit a crime, as in the case of armed robbery (to obtain money/property by using a gun). Violent crimes can be committed with or without the use of weapons. Since these types of cases are prosecuted severely in the state of California, a strong criminal defense is critical.
