Economic offences-white collar crimes & offences against property

Offences against the person – involve some form of injury to an individual. An example of this would be:
- manslaughter,
- murder
- assault
- battery
- sexual assault.

Economic offences-white collar crimes & offences against property
An economic crime is a crime where there is damage or loss to a victims property. A white-collar crime is the dishonest taking of money or property from a business by fraudulent means or non-compliance with the law. An example of an economic crime would be:
- theft
- larceny
- robbery

Offences against the State. Also known as political crime.
- Treason: offences against the sovereign and involves the breach of allegiance to the crow, by trying to kill or harm the king/queen.
- Sedition: incitement of hatred of the sovereign or government or the intention incite violence against the government in order to over throw it.
- Example using the case of R v Sharkey (1949). Where he made statements against the state and in favour of the communist party. Saying that if the Soviet Union invaded Australia aussie worker would welcome such an invasion. He also stated that workers should use force if fascists in Australia tried to stop them gaining power. He was found guilty of sedition.

Drug offences – possession, use, possession of equipment for the use or manufacture of illegal drugs, importation of illegal drugs, supply or possession for the purposes of trafficking, conspiracy. Are all drug offences. (I don’t really know how to define it.)

Public order offences – is a behavior which results in a disturbance of order that directly or indirectly affects the public in some way. Examples include:
- rioting
- offensive conduct

Traffic offences – these are both statutory and strict liability and are the most common offences. Offences include:
- driving through a red light
- speeding
- drink driving


Regulatory offences – is either potentially harmful to to others or involves behavior which the state feels should be regulated for the good of all. Examples of these include:
- lighting a BBQ during a fire ban
- not wearing a seat belt

‘Victimless’ crimes – a crime that does not threaten the person or person property. Examples include:
- illegal drug use

Preliminary crimes – this includes loitering, attempts to commit an offence, conspiracy.

Is that not the best answer! ;) Lol.
Ouch, now my hands hurt. Oh well.

N e way next question folks.
