What is a federal crime?
Federal crimes are violations of laws that are passed by the United States Congress. A federal crime is also any crime that takes place on federal property. Federal property includes courthouses, airports, designated parks, and government owned buildings. All federal crimes are investigated by federal law enforcement agencies, such as the Federal Bureau of Investigations (FBI) and the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA). Once a person is charged with a federal crime, he/she will be prosecuted by a US Attorney.
Frequently Committed Federal Crimes
Federal crimes that are frequently committed are: Federal DUI, white collar crimes, drug trafficking, internet fraud, internet pornography, kidnapping, terrorist threats, bank robbery, drug smuggling, mail fraud, bribery of public officials, and interstate crime.
California Federal Crime Legal Penalties
Once a person is convicted a federal crime, he/she may be punished with:
- Imprisonment
- restitution
- large fines
- community service
- probation
- parole
- court ordered counseling
If the defendant has a prior criminal offense on his/her record, he/she may be subject to enhanced criminal charges and sentencing if convicted. Due to the life-altering legal consequences that are involved, it is always in a person’s best interest to obtain the services of a criminal defense attorney who has the legal background and knowledge it takes to successfully fight federal crime charges. Federal charges must always be taken very seriously, as the sentencing guidelines for federal crimes are more severe than state issued guidelines. By working with a skilled federal defense lawyer from the beginning, defendants stand a better chance of being successful in court.
