What are Federal Crimes?
Certain criminal offenses are covered under California state law, while others are covered under U.S. federal law. Federal crimes may include those that are committed under specific circumstances:
- Criminal offenses committed on federal property, such as at a post office, national park, state or county correctional facility, military bases, and more.
- Criminal offenses that may be prosecuted by federal authorities due to this authority being granted or implied by the U.S. Constitution. For example, the Commerce Clause tends to cover many crimes that involve crossed state lines. Offenses committed using the U.S. Postal Service or public phone lines may also constitute federal crimes.
Most forms of fraud, interstate drug trafficking, identity theft, many white collar crimes, kidnapping, and terrorist threats are all examples of potential federal crimes.
