What Are Violent Crimes?

Violent crimes are generally those that incur bodily injury to others. When these types of crimes are charged as Class A felonies, they can result in fines of up to $4,000, incarceration for 7 1/2 up to 15 years, and probation for up to 5 years. They can also result in a permanent criminal record which can be accessed through a background check. This means any future employer, landlord, financial institution, and others will learn that you are a convicted felon when you submit an application for a job, housing, educational funds, and more.

In New Hampshire and Massachusetts, violent crimes can include:

• Domestic violence/abuse

• Sexual assault/rape

• Assault/battery

• Armed robbery

• Manslaughter

• Murder

• Kidnapping

Misdemeanors are generally charged with less serious crimes that may still be considered violent, such as stalking or criminal mischief.
