What Is Considered To Be A Deadly Weapon In New Jersey?

To be charged with an assault involving a deadly weapon, it must fall under any range of objects that can inflict mortal or serious bodily harm to the victim. Usually, a deadly weapon can include:

This list is not all-inclusive. Any object can be considered a deadly weapon if it was used or can be used to violently harm, attack or kill a victim. Any type of assault with a deadly weapon is classified as a felony-level criminal offense regardless of if you shoot, strike, hit, choke or stab the victim. Penalties for a guilty verdict of this kind of a crime are serious, making hiring a skilled deadly weapons attorney a must.

The Definition Of A Terroristic Threat By New Jersey State Law

According to New Jersey law, a terroristic threat involves one individual threatening to kill another with the intent to terrify or cause imminent fear of death in the recipient of the threat. This usually involves circumstances in which the victim truly believes they are in serious and immediate danger. To get convicted of a crime of this nature, the prosecution has to be convinced that you had the intent and ability to carry out said threats and that the criminal actions you took were life-threatening.
