Mayhem (crime) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Mayhem (crime)
Mayhem is a criminal offense consisting of the intentional maiming of another person. Under the common law of England and Wales and other common law jurisdictions, it originally consisted of the intentional and wanton removal of a body part that would handicap a person's ability to defend himself in combat. Under the strict common law definition, initially this required damage to an eye or a limb, while cutting off an ear or a nose was deemed not sufficiently disabling. Later the meaning of the crime expanded to encompass any mutilation, disfigurement, or crippling act done using any instrument. ==In England==
