The penalty for robbery is typically greater than the penalty for larceny because robbery involves using force, threats, or intimidation to take someone's property, which creates a higher level of harm and danger compared to larceny, which is theft without the use of force. The act of using force or threats creates an immediate risk to the victim's safety, leading to more severe consequences.
