crime
Misconduct that does injury to public interests rather than purely private interests. We view injury to society as separate from injuries suffered by a victim. For a crime to exist, both a criminal act (actus reas) and a guilty mind (mens rea) must be present.
Definition reprinted with permision from Committee on Psychiatry and Law, of the Group for the Advancement of Psychiatry: The Mental Health Professional and the Legal System
