Origin
The word "asportation" first appeared in English in the 16th century. It is derived from the Latin word asportare, which means "to carry away". In Roman law, asportare was a crime that could be committed by carrying away someone or something without their consent. The term was later adopted by the English common law to describe the crime of theft. Today, "asportation" is used more broadly to refer to any act of carrying away or removing something.
