Orlando Criminal Defense Attorney

Vandalism is the intentional and deliberate damage of property that does not belong to the offender.  Examples of vandalism include leaving graffiti on a building, breaking windows, breaking street lamps, keying a person’s car, etc.  Vandalism is classified as an act that is perpetrated due to malicious feelings, thus, it is done due to ill will for a person or business.  In cases of vandalism prosecution, the prosecutors must show that there was both intent and malice when the vandalism was perpetrated.  It also must be shown that the damaged property did not belong to the individual who vandalized it.  Vandalism may also be coupled with other crimes like trespassing. 

Vandalism is punishable by law by either a fine, or community service in most cases.  However, if the act of vandalism causes excessive damage that has high monetary value, punishment may be much stricter.  Furthermore, it is possible to punish an individual for alleged vandalism.  In these cases, it must be shown that vandalism was the intent of the individuals.  This may be evidenced by materials that would aid in the vandalism, such as spray paint cans, baseball bats, etc.  Alleged vandalism is extremely difficult to prove, and especially hard to have stick in court.  However, it is possible to charge a person with this crime.
