Which of the following is NOT included in the FORCIBLE FELONIES acronym MACK P BART?

  1. Arson

  2. Burglary

  3. Fraud

  4. Robbery

The correct answer is: Fraud

The correct answer is C, Fraud, because it is not classified as a forcible felony under the definitions used in law enforcement. Forcible felonies typically involve the use or threat of physical force or violence against a person or property. The acronym MACK P BART includes felonies such as Murder, Arson, Criminal Sexual Conduct, Kidnapping, Robbery, Burglary, Assault, Rape, and Theft, all of which are characterized by their violent or forceful nature. Fraud, on the other hand, involves deception or misrepresentation to achieve a financial gain, which does not inherently include the use of physical force or the threat thereof. This distinction is key in understanding the classifications of crimes and their implications in law enforcement training and procedures.
