Sexual assault creating civil claims separate from criminal prosecution for victim compensation. False imprisonment by security guards, police officers, or businesses illegally detaining customers. Intentional infliction of emotional distress through extreme and outrageous conduct causing psychological harm. Defamation damaging reputation through false statements, particularly affecting professionals or business owners. Fraud or misrepresentation causing physical harm, such as fake medical treatments or dangerous products. Conversion or trespass to chattels when property interference leads to personal injuries.
