Lyrics have been analyzed them far too much.

My name is Alicia and today we're gonna talk about 10 crime related words, So let's begin.

Not the verb form to suspect, though we can use that suspect and suspect have slightly different pronunciations as a noun suspect means a person who may or may not have committed a crime may or may not have done something bad to suspect someone means to be suspicious, to think they may or may not have done something.

So please be careful depending on the grammar.

Ah, suspect and suspect have different pronunciations.

Despite the same spelling so suspect in a sentence.

The suspect was seen running away from the sea criminal.

So a criminal is a person who is convicted of a crime.

So to put that more simply, a criminal is a person who has been determined to have done something against the law.

Ah, by a court of law or the governing body.

So a criminal is someone we know has committed a crime in a sentence.

Victim The next expression is victim Victim.

A victim is a person who suffers because of a crime or because of a natural disaster.

Also, we can use victims for national disasters and for crime.

There just may be the wrong place, the wrong time.

Uh, either way, they're Well, I shouldn't say innocent, but they're the person who suffers in this situation.

A victim is the person who suffers in this situation in a sentence.

He is guilty of blah, blah, blah crime Or he was found guilty of global blood crime.

The nuance of guilty is having done something bad, eh?

So if you are guilty of a crime, it means you have done that crime.

We can use guilty as an adjective to talk about the way someone looks so guilty in a court or guilty in discussing a criminal case can mean he or she did the crime.

However, we can't say he looks guilty or the dog looks guilty.

That means that that person or that object to that animal looks like they did something bad.

So guilty means has the nuance of doing something bad in a sentence.

Okay, so on the other hand, not guilty, not guilty is the verdict.

So verdict is the word used for decision In criminal cases, not guilty means not doing the crime.

So a person who is found or determined not guilty means they did not do the crime or it's been decided that that person did not do the crime.

In a sentence, he was found not guilty of the crime to plead to plead so to plead is similar to too big.

So to plead means to humbly request something.

This is the image of pleading like your hands together, hoping very much for something, asking very humbly for something.

But this is the verb that we use in court cases in criminal cases.

So we'll say Ah, I want to plead not guilty for the crime of blah, blah, blah.

So to plead ah means to request consideration for something.

So I want to plead not guilty means I want to request you the court, the judge, whoever my community, you find me, you consider me not guilty.

I did not do the crime so But we use instead of that very long expression we say I plead not guilty.

This is a much easier way to express that situation.

Of course, you can plead guilty to a crime to in some cases.

This is past tense to plead changes to pled.

He pled guilty to the crime of manslaughter, for example, so in a sentence, the defendant pled not guilty murder homicide So the next expression Ah, have murder and homicide here.

So, murder and homicide, if you watch police shows, are you watching?

You know, movies, dramas which use, uh, the police and FBI and so on.

You might have heard these words, but what's the difference?

So murder and homicide are used to mean the same thing.

It means killing another person with intention.

So to murder someone else means to kill another person.

And with intention, there's a plan to do it.

Homicide is the word that is used in legal terminology or in forensic.

Analysis of like blood, for example of bacteria.

So kind of scientific analysis of a crime scene.

So in those cases in the investigation side and in the legal side, they might use the word homicide, Perhaps more.

Ah, you might also here homicide in news.

But in everyday conversation, murder is perhaps more common.

So the defendant was convicted of murder.

The defendant was found guilty of murder in a sentence.

All right, so another expression manslaughter.

You can see the words slaughter is there.

So slaughter refers to killing something.

We use slaughter Ah, in many cases to refer to slaughterhouses where cattle are killed like pigs and cows, for example, eso It has the image of cling brutally killing.

However, manslaughter refers to an accidental killing.

So, for example, driving in a car and just threw some strange accident.
