	Criminal Minds (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-07)
		Criminal offences consist of two distinct elements; the physical act (the actus reus, guilty act) and the requisite mental state with which the act is done (the mens rea, guilty mind).
		Criminal law in most jurisdictions both in the common and civil law traditions is divided into two fields: * Criminal procedure regulates the process for addressing violations of criminal law * Substantive criminal law details the definition of, and punishments for, various crimes.
		Criminal law has been seen as a system of regulating the behavior of individuals and groups in relation to societal norms at large whereas civil law is aimed primarily at the relationship between private individuals and their rights and obligations under the law.
