A heinous crime refers to a serious and particularly egregious offense that is considered morally reprehensible and shocking to society. Examples of heinous crimes may include murder, rape, human trafficking, terrorism, and genocide, among others. These types of crimes are often characterized by extreme violence, cruelty, or depravity, and can have devastating effects on victims, their families, and society as a whole.

The severity of heinous crimes reflects their profound impact on individuals and communities, and society generally agrees that they warrant the strongest possible condemnation and punishment.
