Dirty State Crime
is Torturing
British Civilians
In criminology, state crime is activity or failures to act that break the State's own criminal law or public international law.
For these purposes, Ross (2000b) defines a "state" as the elected and appointed officials, the bureaucracy, and the institutions, bodies and organizations comprising the apparatus of the government.
​
As international crimes, a state may engage in state terror and terrorism, torture, war crimes, and genocide. Both internationally and nationally, there may be corruption, state-corporate crime, and organized crime.
