Abstract
The list of violent crimes may be extensive, depending on the definition. The FBI's definition is restricted to include only murder and manslaughter, assaults, rape, and robbery. However, the United Nations' and World Health Organization's definitions are much broader and include several crimes against women and children, crimes against civilians during armed conflicts, and other “crimes against humanity.” This entry includes brief discussion of some of the common forms of violent crime, including intimate partner violence and other domestic violence offenses, and of the most horrific violent crimes, those committed against children, and gang violence.
