Fraud
Those are typically crimes committed at the place of employment by an employee or even an owner. These crimes can include forgery, credit card fraud, money laundering, and embezzlement...
Robbery
Armed robbery. There are three types of robbery in Arizona: robbery, armed robbery, and aggravated robbery. At the heart of each type of robbery is the taking of property belonging to another through force or the threat of force. Aggravated robbery occurs when you have one or more accomplices assist you. Armed robbery occurs when you use a deadly weapon or something appearing to be a deadly weapon (such as a toy gun or rubber knife). Armed robbery is a Class 2 felony.
Burglary
Burglary. A burglary occurs when a person breaks and enters into a house, other building, or a vehicle for the purpose of committing a theft or felony inside. Do not be fooled by the terms “break” and “enter” – you can be convicted of burglary even if the door to a house was left unlocked or you jimmied the lock open. A burglary also occurs once your foot or any other body part crosses the threshold to the building or vehicle with the intent to commit a theft or felony therein. For example, opening the door to a car that is not yours and reaching in with your hand to grab a purse sitting on the passenger seat is a completed act of burglary. There are three degrees of burglary depending on what you broke and entered into (a residence, a car, another building, etc.) and if you carried with you anything dangerous to help you commit the burglary. The most severe penalties are reserved for those cases where you enter a residence unlawfully armed with explosives or other deadly weapons. Depending on the circumstances, a burglary conviction can be anywhere from a Class 2 felony to a Class 4 felony.
White Collar Crimes
Unlike some crimes that are only prosecuted by state or local governments, white collar crimes can be prosecuted by the federal government as well.

Misdemeanors
Misdemeanor is a crime that is punishable by a jail sentence of up to six months and/or a $2,500 fine. Misdemeanors are generally more serious than infractions but less serious than felonies. Misdemeanors may also carry some negative consequences – for instance, a conviction for misdemeanor theft can prevent you from obtaining certain jobs – but in general the consequences are short-lived.

Drug Crimes
Americans’ attitudes toward drug use and possession are ever changing. Younger individuals tend to see nothing wrong with consuming and possessing small amounts of marijuana. Even older Americans are beginning to support measures to legalize possession of some small amounts of marijuana. Those who do not support drug possession and use may still disagree with current laws that punish those found in possession of drugs with prison sentences, which would require a drug crime attorney Phoenix Arizona.

Identity Theft
Identity theft: When you use the personal identifying information of another – another person’s birth date, name, social security number – or hold yourself out to be someone you are not, you have committed identity theft. Because of the complications and difficulties victims of identity theft can experience, identity theft and related crimes are typically felony offenses punishable by incarceration in a state prison and significant fines.
Homicide
The law in Arizona recognizes that not all homicides are the same and therefore the penalties for homicide cases should depend on the circumstances of each case. There are four main types of homicide cases: what you are charged with will depend in large part on the amount of thought and deliberation that preceded the killing...

Money Laundering
Kidnapping
Kidnapping. Kidnapping refers to taking and confining someone against their will for some illicit purpose (such as to commit a sexual battery against that person or to hold them as hostage). The distance the person is taken is immaterial: a victim can be “kidnapped” if you forcibly take that person from the kitchen of his or her house and confine them against his or her will in a bedroom of that same house. Kidnapping is a Class 2 felony with a presumptive prison sentence of five years in prison on a first conviction. The severity of this crime can be lessened if you release the victim voluntarily prior to your arrest or police involvement.
Manslaughter
Manslaughter is an appropriate charge where the defendant recklessly killed the victim, such as sometimes occurs when there is a sudden quarrel or fight. A conviction for manslaughter can result in a prison sentence of 7 to 25 years in prison.
Internet Crimes
Computer/internet crimes: Using an electronic device like a home computer or an ATM to carry out a fraudulent transaction is considered a white collar crime. Even accessing a computer without the owner’s permission can be punished as a misdemeanor. “Hacking,” or more serious schemes involving a computer device or the internet, can be punished as felonies.
