About Violent Crimes in Texas
Common violent crimes in Texas include:
- Assault
- Aggravated assault
- Manslaughter
- Murder
- Domestic violence
- And others
Many of these crimes can be elevated in severity depending on the specific circumstances and nature of the alleged offense.
For example, if a robbery was committed and the defendant used a deadly weapon, the charge of robbery could be elevated to aggravated robbery. This could also occur if the victim of the robbery was disabled or 65 years of age or older. Whether you are facing a misdemeanor or felony charge, I have the skillset required to aggressively advocate on your behalf.
Common violent crimes include:
- Domestic violence – This occurs when an individual assaults or commits a violent crime against a member of their household, a current or past romantic partner, or a family member.
- Homicide – This is the umbrella term used to cover a vast range of unlawful killings in the state of Texas. If you are charged with causing another person’s death, you may be facing charges of murder, manslaughter, or criminally negligent homicide.
- Kidnapping – Forcing an individual to move to another location and controlling them may result in kidnapping charges.
