Interstate crimes are crimes that take place in two or more states. United States Code 2314 states that it is a Federal offense to transport, or aid in the transportation, of stolen property valuing at least $5,000 across state lines. An aggressive and experienced interstate criminal defense lawyer has knowledge of all interstate crimes and winning defenses for each situation.

Interstate crime charges include:

• Commercial auto theft
• Cargo theft from interstate shipments
• Transportation of stolen property from one state to another
• Interstate stalking - crossing state lines with the intention to kill, injure, harass, and/or intimidate another person

The following three factors must be proven before the defendant can be found guilty of certain interstate crimes:

1. The defendant transported stolen goods across state lines
2. The stolen goods amounted to at least $5,000
3. The defendant knew that the goods being transported were in fact, stolen

If you have been charged with or are under investigation for an interstate crime or any other federal offense you need the representation of an aggressive and experienced federal crimes defense attorney immediately.
