What Types of Cases Are Federal Crimes?
Federal crimes are those that violate federal laws or occur on federal property, while state crimes are offenses that violate state laws or occur within a state's boundaries. The factors that determine whether a crime becomes a state or federal case include the nature of the offense, the location where the crime took place, and the parties involved. For instance, if a crime crosses state lines, involves a federal agency, or affects interstate commerce, it may be prosecuted as a federal offense.
Jurisdiction, or the authority to hear and decide a case, is determined by the type of crime committed. State courts generally have jurisdiction over state crimes, while federal courts have jurisdiction over federal crimes. However, in some cases, both state and federal courts can have concurrent authority, meaning either court could hear the case.
Crimes that can be considered federal offenses include:
- Drug Offenses: Including trafficking, manufacturing, distribution, and possession with intent to distribute.
- White Collar Crimes: Such as embezzlement, insider trading, tax evasion, and fraud (wire, mail, securities, and bank fraud).
- Cybercrimes: Including identity theft, hacking, cyberstalking, and online fraud.
- Violent Crimes: Such as kidnapping, human trafficking, and certain types of assault and murder.
- Public Corruption: Involving bribery, extortion, and illegal gratuities.
- Immigration Crimes: Including illegal re-entry, document fraud, and human smuggling.
- Firearms Offenses: Such as illegal possession, trafficking, and use of firearms in the commission of a crime.
- Environmental Crimes: Including illegal dumping, pollution violations, and wildlife trafficking.
