How to use «Commit crime» in context?

In everyday language, committing crime means doing something wrong—and breaking the law. Criminals break the law by committing crimes, which generally means harming someone else or breaking a law. The laws that criminals break can vary from state to state, but they all involve breaking the law in some way.

Criminals who break the law often do it for no good reason. They may be looking for excitement or money, or they may be trying to scare or punish someone else. The bottom line is that breaking the law is not smart or sensible and can have dangerous consequences.
