What is a crime against the state?

It is generally used to describe a serious offense (e.g.: such as treason) committed against a national government. However in its 'looser' meaning it can be used to describe ANY offense against the statutes, or any law, passed by a state legislature or the national government. When you commit a serious offense against an individual - although they are the "victim," "complainant," or "complaining witness" - you have actually committed a crime against the laws of the state and it is "the state" (in the person of the prosecutor) who will prosecute the charge against you.
