A violent crime is a criminal offense that involves threats, force or violence against another person. A wide variety of particular acts may be considered violent crimes, including certain theft crimes (robbery, carjacking, and mugging) and sex crimes (forcible rape, sexual assault, and sexual battery.) Additional examples of violent crimes include: assault, domestic violence, battery, weapons offenses, manslaughter, murder, attempted murder, armed robbery, arson, and burglary.

The penalties for a violent crime conviction in Texas may vary depending upon the offense itself, whether it is classified as a misdemeanor or a felony, whether a weapon was used, and the extent of injury the victim suffered. Potential penalties may include imprisonment in state prison or county jail, heavy fines, probation, mandatory anger management counseling, and victim restitution.
