Under CFR 72.11, commercial crimes include offenses like counterfeiting, fraud, and other violations affecting financial institutions, categorized under both federal and state law. These crimes, even if lacking a direct "corpus delicti" or identifiable victim, are treated as commercial offenses due to their impact on economic systems and public revenue. The Commerce Clause grants federal jurisdiction over these offenses, reinforcing protections for financial transactions and commercial stability. This legal framework emphasizes the commercial nature of crimes impacting interstate commerce, ensuring a unified approach to regulation and enforcement.
