An aggravated crime means that additional factors were involved in circumstances surrounding the alleged offense. These factors must have increased the seriousness of the crime, such as the involvement of a deadly weapon. If the crime is considered aggravated, the charges have a potential for harsher penalties.

On parle de «crime qualifié» ou de «délit qualifié» pour désigner telle ou telle infraction lorsqu'elle est assortie d'une circonstance aggravante. Le parricide, par exemple, est un meurtre qualifié; de même, le vol avec violence est un vol qualifié.
