/steɪdʒd kraɪm/ – Phrase
Definition: giả vờ phạm tội, đóng kịch phạm tội.
A more thorough explanation: A staged crime refers to a situation where an individual or group deliberately plans and executes a deceptive act to make it appear as if a crime has occurred, when in fact it has not. This can involve fabricating evidence, creating false scenarios, or manipulating circumstances to mislead others into believing that a crime has taken place. Staged crimes are typically done for various reasons, such as insurance fraud, seeking attention, or framing someone else for a crime they did not commit.
Example: The defendant was charged with conspiracy to commit a staged crime in order to defraud the insurance company.
