Public-order offenders represent the largest percentage of the US prison population.

Public-order offenders are those convicted of a public-order crime. A public-order crime is a crime that disrupts the normal functioning of society and its members.

It is a violation of societal norms and customs. It is differentiated from trifle deviancy by degrees- a deviant behavior is criminalized if it is overly disruptive and can only be controlled through law enforcement.

They are often called ‘victimless’ or ‘complaintless’ as they do not directly harm another party, and at the most only those engaged in the act. Example include the use of illegal drugs from recreation, illegal prostitution, distributing obscene material in public, etc.
