Burglary, Larceny, Motor Vehicle Theft, Shoplifting, Criminal Mischief, Arson

In the world of criminal behavior, there are different types of crimes. The main categories of crime include offenses against people (e.g. violent crimes), inchoate crimes (“attempts”), statutory crimes (e.g. alcohol-related crimes, drug crimes, traffic offenses, and white collar crimes), financially-motivated crimes, and crimes against property.

As the name suggests, “property crime” generally involves damaging or destroying someone else’s property. Although damaging someone else’s property may cause the property owner to experience strong, negative emotions and significant mental harm as a result of losing enjoyment or use of their property, or losing the money they spent on it, property crime does not typically involve an act of violence toward the owner of the property.

As such, most property crimes are also categorized as theft crimes, including:

  • Burglary
  • Larceny
  • Motor Vehicle theft
  • Shoplifting
  • Arson
  • Criminal Mischief

“The object of the theft-type offenses is the taking of money or property, but there is no force or threat of force against the victims. The property crime category includes arson because the offense involves the destruction of property; however, arson victims may be subjected to force,” according to the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s (FBI) page on property crime.

    "Jason answered all my emails and phone calls."
    There is nothing like the fear and uncertainty the legal system brings to keep you up at night, especially when it involves your child. For this reason selecting an attorney was one of the most daunting and important decisions I made; after much research that’s why I chose Jason Porter. Throughout the legal process Jason answered all my emails and phone calls, he figuratively provided the hand holding my son and mostly I needed to be reassured the outcome would be in our favor. Needless to say the outcome was in our favor and I could not have been more pleased with Jason’s service. I was so pleased with Jason’s professionalism and legal savvy that I asked if he practices law outside of criminal defense, so I could use his services for all my legal needs. He will always receive my business in the future.
