Addition of Dangerous Offense Charges

A dangerous offense charge can be added to nearly any criminal charge, ranging from assault and theft to sex offenses. Dangerous crimes may include:

• Crimes committed with a deadly weapon
• Crimes committed with a dangerous instrument (nearly anything can be construed as a dangerous instrument)
• Crimes that cause a serious physical injury

The addition of a dangerous offense charge to any criminal charge is significant and will have a severe impact on the individual's life if not properly handled. There is no eligibility for probation. Therefore, the entire sentence must be served. In addition, offenses committed with a vehicle, such as a drunk driving accident, will result in automatic prison time.
