What is violent crime?

There are many different types of violent crime, but they can all be described as activities where a person is treated with physical force or violence against their will.

Some of the various types of violent crime include assault and GBH (which stands for grievous bodily harm). In the UK, sexual offences like sexual abuse and rape are also classified as violent crime.

If a death occurs due to a violent crime, this is called homicide and the Homicide Act 1957 defined the different kinds of killings. These include:

Murder - This is when a person has been killed with malicious intent.
Involuntary manslaughter - Deaths caused by involuntary manslaughter could include those involving negligence on behalf of the person accused of the crime, or the undertaking of dangerous activities that led to the death.
Voluntary manslaughter - In these cases, there may have been intent to murder, but other circumstances could provide a partial defence. Examples include diminished responsibility (such as mental illness), loss of control or suicide pact.
