(A)  Aggravated Felonies.

 

            Unlike crimes of moral turpitude, there is no malum prohibitum/malum in se distinction for aggravated felony offenses.  Instead the requirements of each individual category of the aggravated felony definition must be examined to determine whether a regulatory offense will constitute an aggravated felony.
