18. Defenses

19. Reminders in Criminal Law
For a conviction to occur in a criminal case, the prosecutor must establish beyond a reasonable doubt that the defendant committed the act in question with the required intent
The government must prove its case
The defendant is not required to defend himself
However, there are numerous defenses that can be used…

20. No Crime Has Been Committed
Evidence that no crime was committed
E.g., carried gun but had permit, wasn’t rape but consensual
No criminal intent was involved
E.g., might have mistakenly taken someone else’s coat=honest and reasonable mistake

21. Defendant Did Not Commit the Crime
Alibi
Evidence that the defendant was somewhere else at the time of the crime
DNA evidence

22. Defendant Committed a Criminal Act, but the Act was Excusable or Justifiable
Self-defense
the right of a person who is unlawfully attacked
cannot use more force than appears reasonably necessary
deadly force can only be used if the person believes there is eminent danger of death or serious bodily harm
Defense of property
reasonably non-deadly force
however, some states have “Make My Day laws” which allow for deadly force against unwarranted intrusion
Defense of others
use of reasonable force
you can use it if the person attacked can claim self-defense

23. Review
Ms. George kept a pistol in her home as protection against intruders. One evening, she heard a noise in the den and went to investigate. Upon entering the room, she saw a man stealing her television. The burglar, seeing the gun, ran for the window, but Ms. George fired and killed him before he could escape.
In a trial for manslaughter, Ms. George pleaded self-defense. Would you find her guilty?
Would your answer be any different if we had a Make My Day Law in GA?

24. Review
Coach Hutto has a legal handgun to protect his home against intruders and against increasing crime in his neighborhood. One night, Takeshi, a 16-year old Japanese exchange student, walks up to Mr. Peter’s driveway looking for a party. Takeshi thinks Hutto is hosting the party and begins yelling and waving his arms. Coach Hutto gets scared, retrieves his handgun, and points it at Takeshi while yelling “Freeze!” Takeshi does not understand English and keeps walking toward Hutto. Thinking he is an intruder, Hutto shoots and kills Takeshi at the front steps of his house.
Coach Hutto is charged with first degree murder. Does he have a defense?

25. Review
The owner of a jewelry store spots a shoplifter stealing an expensive necklace. Can the owner use force to prevent the crime? Is so, how much?

26. Defendant Committed a Criminal Act but is Not Criminally Responsible for his or her Actions
Infancy
under 7, legally incapable of committing a crime
ages 7-14 also considered in that category, but has exceptions
e.g., 12-yr. old boy was charged with murder of 6 yr. old girl when attempting a wrestling move in “tough on crime” law
Intoxication
so drunk or high they didn’t know what they were doing
voluntary intoxication is generally NOT a defense
exception=if crime requires proof of specific mental state
e.g., sometimes can claim that because of drunkenness, a person could not have formed the intention to kill; if the mental state existed before getting drunk, it would not be a defense

27. Defendant Committed a Criminal Act but is Not Criminally Responsible for his or her Actions
Insanity
people with a mental disorder shouldn’t get convicted if they didn’t know what they were doing or can tell the difference b/n right and wrong
only applies if the person was insane at the time of the crime
some states have abolished the defense
Person must be acquitted if they lack the substantial capacity to appreciate the nature of the act

28. Defendant Committed a Criminal Act but is Not Criminally Responsible for his or her Actions
Entrapment
admits to criminal act, but claims he/she was induced or persuaded to commit the crime by a law enforcement officer
entrapment is NOT just providing the opportunity to commit a crime, but that the defendant would not have committed the crime except for the officer
difficult to prove and cannot be claimed in serious crimes involving serious injury

29. Can entrapment be claimed as a valid defense in any of the following cases?
Mary, an undercover police officer masquerading as a prostitute, approaches Edward and tells him that she’ll have sex with him in exchange for $50. Edward hands over the money and is arrested.

Maybe, maybe not; was he roaming the streets looking for a prostitute or was he lured into committing a crime

30. Can entrapment be claimed as a valid defense in any of the following cases?
Jan, a drug dealer, offers to sell drugs to Emilio, an undercover police officer disguised as a drug addict. Emilio buys the drugs and Jan is arrested.

31. Can entrapment be claimed as a valid defense in any of the following cases?

After refusing several offers, Sammy, who has no history of gambling but lost his job, finally gives Rashid $200 as a bet. Rashid immediately arrests Sammy.
Answer:
Entrapment; Sammy has no previous history of gambling and would likely not have entered the gambling ring if not prodded by Rashid
