Answer:

Criminal cases involve an action that is considered to be harmful to society as a whole. Criminal cases almost always allow for a trial by jury.

Explanation:

✓ The principle is always the same: a person is accused of a crime (e.g., murder, assault, identity theft).

✓ A crime can occur even if there is no “immediate” victim (e.g., the crime of drug possession).

✓ In Canada, people are considered innocent until the evidence proves they are guilty.
