VIOLENT CRIMES IN SAN DIEGO

The category of violent crimes encompasses a wide range of criminal acts. A criminal act may be physical in nature and cause bodily harm; it could also include harm done to another through the use of verbal threats. Each case that’s classified under the violent crime spectrum is unique, and because there’s so much at stake, you need an experienced and knowledgeable attorney to aggressively defend your case.

California Penal Code section 667.5 includes the following violent crimes:

Domestic Violence: Domestic violence is defined under California Penal Code 243(e)(1) as battery committed on a former spouse, spouse, partner, parent of one’s child, fiancé, or any individual with whom the defendant is intimate.
Robbery: According to California Penal Code 211, robbery is defined as taking someone’s property from their body or area of possession by force or fear.
Homicide: Homicide can be divided into two broad groups depending on the intent:
- Murder, as stated in California Penal Code 187, “is the unlawful killing of a human being, or a fetus, with malice aforethought.”
- Manslaughter, which is defined by California Penal Code 192 as “the unlawful killing of a human being without malice.” Manslaughter can be broken down into three subcategories:
  - Voluntary: an act that occurred within a heat of passion
  - Involuntary: the homicide was committed during the commission of a non-felony crime
  - Vehicular Manslaughter: a homicide was committed while operating a vehicle during the commission of a non-felony crime
- Child Endangerment: Child Endangerment is defined by California Penal Code 273a as willfully placing a child in danger or by causing or allowing the following to be inflicted upon a minor:
  - Unjustifiable physical pain or mental suffering
  - Injury to person or health
  - Endangerment of health or safety
- Arson: California Penal Code 451 and 452 describes arson as a willful, malicious, or reckless act of setting fire to any building, forest land, or property that is not one’s own property.
- Elder Abuse: Elder abuse broadly described includes the unjustifiable infliction of physical or mental suffering upon an elder person according to California Penal Code 368.

VIOLENT CRIME PENALTIES

Because the circumstances surrounding each violent crime charge can vary widely, the penalties attached to each will be decided according to many factors. Depending on the severity of the charge, the defendant’s prior criminal record, weapons involved during the commission of the crime, and the victim’s age and circumstances all figure into sentencing.

The penalties could range from an imposed monetary fine, the requirement of completing community services hours, attending classes such as anger management, or more severe prison sentences. If the case includes aggravating factors, the stakes are much higher.

The attorneys at Superior Law Center in San Diego offer a successful history of having violent crime charges reduced or even dismissed.

THREE STRIKES LAW

With the enactment of California’s Three Strikes law in 1994, state courts are mandated to impose life sentences on those convicted of three or more felonies or other serious criminal offenses. That law was amended in 2012 with Proposition 36, which reduced mandatory life imprisonment to 25 years.

IMMIGRATION

In addition to the penalties stipulated by California Penal Code 667.5, if you are not a United States citizen when found guilty of a violent crime in San Diego, you may also face deportation proceedings.

A conviction under the same penal code may also be considered one of moral turpitude, which is considered a crime that is more reprehensible than others. A moral turpitude conviction carries the potential for deportation.
