Best Answer

Question is somewhat unclear. Statutes ARE laws. You may be asking about CRIMINAL STATUTES - in order for a crime to occur two elements MUST be present - A criminal ACT accompanied by a criminal INTENT. WIhtout those two elements present, no 'crime' has occurred. Generally, the law which makes actions crime is the criminal code. For an example of such a code see the first related link below. For more detail regarding your question see the second related link.
