What Are State Crimes?
State crimes are crimes that are committed against the state, rather than an individual. These crimes are typically more serious than crimes against individuals.
Examples of state crimes include:
- Tax crimes, such as tax evasion, tax fraud, and tax forgery
- Embezzlement
- Bribery
- Forgery
- Larceny
- Receiving stolen property
- Weapons violations
How Does the State Prosecute State Crimes?
The state prosecutes state crimes differently than crimes against individuals. Crimes against the state are typically more serious, and the state will often bring harsher charges against the defendant. For example, if an individual is charged with tax fraud, the state may bring lesser charges. However, if a business is charged with tax fraud, the state will likely pursue harsher charges.
Additionally, if the crime is against the state, the state may join the case as a plaintiff. For example, if a defendant is charged with forgery, the state may also bring charges against the defendant. The state will join the case as a plaintiff, and the state will be the one to bring charges against the defendant.
