Is burglary a violent offense in Florida?

In Florida, burglary is generally classified as a property crime rather than a violent offense. However, it can be considered violent if the burglar enters a dwelling with the intent to commit a crime and encounters an occupant, potentially leading to confrontational situations. The charges can escalate to aggravated burglary if a weapon is used or if the crime involves an assault. Thus, while burglary itself is not inherently a violent crime, specific circumstances can elevate its classification.


Are murder and aggravated assault are both considered violent crime offenses?

Yes. Both crimes are felonies. The term "aggravated" added to an assault charge in most jurisdictions strictly implies that the assault was with the intent to cause serious bodily harm. This is to distinguish it from simply "assault", as individuals charged with assault did not intend serious harm. Because the intent to cause serious bodily harm is specifically stated in the statute, it is considered a violent crime.Added: These are examples of types of crime that are considered to be "Crimes Of Moral Turpitude."
