If we knew how much a crime costs society, their reasoning went, maybe we could better decide how much money to spend trying to stop it. They found that each burglary in the United Statesâa car break-in, for exampleâcosts $41,288. For armed robberies the cost increases eightfold, to $335,733. Every aggravated assault costs $145,379. Each rape costs $448,532. Then there is murder. The researchers, led by sociologist Matt DeLisi, put the price tag at a whopping $17,252,656. That means in 2009, according to the FBI, murder cost the United States almost $263 billionânearly as much the federal government annually spends on Medicaid.
Aggravated residential burglary is a Class Y felony, which can result in a prison term of 10 to 40 years or life. Residential burglary is a Class B felony, punishable by five to 20 years in prison and a fine of up to $15,000.
