What crimes have you committed?

[Malus]

I've been caught drunk and got away with it but who here said they murdered someone?

The Question of the Week, I'd say.

NOT me.

I suspect a few people think they're being funny...

Right, guys?

Better watch it whoever mentioned they put someone on ice. IP addresses are like fingerprints.

Have you ever wondered why you have never seen a vampire?
You can thank me

 

[X-Chick]

It's spelled "PERJURY."

Yeah, I know. I didn't exactly have a properly working brain when I did this. Alcohol mixed with Tylenol PM is bad.

 

[Superman79]

haha...I just had this question on my state Bar application.

Officially (as in, I've been caught): speeding

Never reported (due to mutual involvement [as in, a fight]): assualt and battery

Great. That means I will, too. Luckily, I've gotten away with all my crimes.

Only if its excessive. Otherwise, it just makes you kind of drowsy. Probably makes a normal person sleep.

 

[Tangled Web]

One's I've done:

Illegal drug use: underage drinking, not a huge deal.

/batteryassault/disorderly conduct: fighting.

 

[Varient]

Hmph,..

Didn't see "Jaywalking"

or

"Sleepdriving".

 

[Kritish]

Four other people voted for a sex crime. I hope they were kidding too.

 

[DarthRekal]

Wrong. Technically speaking, assault is any illegal contact with another person, meaning any unwelcome contact. Battery is the same thing but with the intent to inflict harm on the other person.

In my previous post, I meant to say battery is threatening or intending harm and assault is just harming another person.

To be more clear, if you get in a fight with someone and just try to defend yourself, that's assault. But if you get in a fight and try to break the other person's nose just to cause them pain, that's battery.

Battery is the more serious offense, unless the charge is aggravated assault.

2.Law. an unlawful physical attack upon another; an attempt or offer to do violence to another, with or without battery, as by holding a stone or club in a threatening manner

You should still go ahead and tend away from doing it.

I'm glad you know how to copy and paste from some web dictionary and yeah, that's might be the legal definition in the books, but its not the law in action and for the most part, statues don't define "assault" as a threat. For example, if I say "I'm going to hit you with this hammer," that's not assault. However, if I swing the hammer at you, it is. And hey look, I can copy and paste too.

"A threat is distinguishable from an assault, for an assault requires some physical act that appears likely to eventuate in violence, whereas a threat may consist of words only or an act that is not violent, e.g., unlawful prosecution. Threats made to obtain money or property wrongfully are crimes (see blackmail and extortion), and under some statutes, the mere sending of nonextortionate letters that announce an intent to injure the person or property of another is criminal. Any contract concluded while one party is deprived of his freedom of will by a threat (see duress) is invalid and may be set aside."

You should still go ahead and tend away from doing it.

Yeah, its not like a normal thing. First time and only because we had a few drinks with some friends at dinner and I had to work early so took two Tylenol PMs to get some sleep.

[Frico]

As for me, I stole two packs of Double Mint Gum once, then ran like hell

[kypade]

I've murdered someone in my sleep. Strangled with my bare hands...I'm PRETTY sure I stuck my thumbs through his neck (like pierced the skin into his throat kinda thing). It was the worst feeling I've ever felt.

 

[kypade]

Sleep = dreams ugh.
