READING
A crime is committed when someone breaks the law. Some
are crimes against property (for example, stealing
someone’s money or breaking someone’s windows) and
some are crimes against persons (for example, beating or
sexually assaulting someone). Some involve
and people. In some instances, the victim may not actually
be present when the crime occurs (for example, in a home
burglary). Other kinds of wrong-doing may be more difficult
to define. Abuse is often used to describe harm caused by
one person against another. Abuse may be a crime (as in
"child sexual abuse") or it may not be a crime (as in "verbal
abuse"). Abuses such as the withholding of medication or
serious neglect of a person who needs a certain level of care may indeed be crimes.
When abuse is a crime, the police should take a crime report and investigate the crime to try to
identify and arrest the offender. The prosecutor’s office may then take the case to court. In addition,
