Criminal Law Chapter 6 Specific 
Crimes in the realm of criminal 

2
00:00:04,320 --> 00:00:07,640
law, the classification of 
crimes provides a structured way

3
00:00:07,640 --> 00:00:10,600
to understand and prosecute 
various unlawful acts. 

4
00:00:10,920 --> 00:00:14,200
This chapter delves into 
specific types of crimes, each 

5
00:00:14,200 --> 00:00:18,560
with its unique elements, legal 
nuances, and societal impacts. 

6
00:00:18,920 --> 00:00:22,600
We will explore theft offenses, 
fraud and white collar crimes, 

7
00:00:22,720 --> 00:00:26,720
sexual offenses, drug offenses, 
and public order crimes, 

8
00:00:26,840 --> 00:00:29,840
examining how they are defined 
and prosecuted within the legal 

9
00:00:29,840 --> 00:00:32,759
system. 
I Theft offenses Larceny, 

10
00:00:32,880 --> 00:00:37,000
embezzlement, False pretenses 
Death defenses are a category of

11
00:00:37,000 --> 00:00:40,320
crimes involving the unlawful 
taking or use of someone else's 

12
00:00:40,320 --> 00:00:42,960
property with the intent to 
permanently deprive the owner of

13
00:00:42,960 --> 00:00:45,880
its use or benefit. 
These crimes are distinct from 

14
00:00:45,880 --> 00:00:49,040
robbery, which involves the use 
of force or threat, and 

15
00:00:49,040 --> 00:00:52,240
burglary, which involves illegal
entry with intent to commit a 

16
00:00:52,240 --> 00:00:54,720
crime. 
Death defenses are primarily 

17
00:00:54,720 --> 00:00:58,600
concerned with deceit, breach of
trust, or wrongful acquisition. 

18
00:00:58,880 --> 00:01:02,720
Here, we'll delve into three 
primary theft offenses, larceny,

19
00:01:02,880 --> 00:01:05,160
embezzlement, and false 
pretenses. 

20
00:01:05,560 --> 00:01:09,320
A Larceny Larceny is one of the 
most basic and ancient forms of 

21
00:01:09,320 --> 00:01:11,680
theft. 
It is defined as the unlawful 

22
00:01:11,680 --> 00:01:14,360
taking and carrying away of 
another's tangible personal 

23
00:01:14,360 --> 00:01:17,200
property with the intent to 
permanently deprive the rightful

24
00:01:17,200 --> 00:01:19,880
owner of it. 
Larceny does not include real 

25
00:01:19,880 --> 00:01:22,680
property or services. 
It is strictly limited to 

26
00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:26,800
personal property. 
One Elements of Larceny To 

27
00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:30,320
secure a conviction for larceny,
the prosecution must prove 

28
00:01:30,320 --> 00:01:32,520
several elements beyond a 
reasonable doubt. 

29
00:01:33,120 --> 00:01:35,720
Unlawful Taking. 
The defendant must have taken 

30
00:01:35,720 --> 00:01:38,600
possession of someone else's 
property without consent. 

31
00:01:38,960 --> 00:01:42,240
This requirement distinguishes 
larceny from situations where 

32
00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:45,440
possession is initially legal, 
such as borrowing an item with 

33
00:01:45,440 --> 00:01:48,840
the owner's consent. 
Carrying away aspiration. 

34
00:01:48,960 --> 00:01:51,560
The property must be physically 
moved from its original 

35
00:01:51,560 --> 00:01:53,880
location. 
Even a slight movement can 

36
00:01:53,880 --> 00:01:57,120
satisfy this element. 
Aspiration demonstrates the 

37
00:01:57,120 --> 00:02:00,280
defendant's intent to exercise 
control over the property. 

38
00:02:00,640 --> 00:02:03,320
Personal property. 
The object of the theft must be 

39
00:02:03,320 --> 00:02:07,720
tangible personal property, such
as money, goods, or any movable 

40
00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:10,160
item, not land or attached 
structures. 

41
00:02:10,479 --> 00:02:13,880
Intent to permanently deprive. 
The defendant must have intended

42
00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:16,200
to permanently remove the 
property from the owner's 

43
00:02:16,200 --> 00:02:19,120
possession. 
Temporary deprivation, as in 

44
00:02:19,120 --> 00:02:22,600
joyriding, typically does not 
constitute larceny unless there 

45
00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:24,760
is intent to keep or destroy the
property. 

46
00:02:25,080 --> 00:02:29,160
Two types of larceny. 
Larceny can be classified based 

47
00:02:29,160 --> 00:02:30,960
on the value of the property 
taken. 

48
00:02:31,520 --> 00:02:36,040
Petty Petty larceny involves 
items of relatively low value. 

49
00:02:36,400 --> 00:02:39,400
It is often considered a 
misdemeanor, subject to lighter 

50
00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:42,040
penalties like fines or short 
term imprisonment. 

51
00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:46,240
Grand larceny involves items of 
significant value and is treated

52
00:02:46,240 --> 00:02:49,960
as a felony carrying harsher 
penalties, including longer 

53
00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:55,000
prison sentences. 3 Examples of 
larceny Shoplifting. 

54
00:02:55,120 --> 00:02:57,840
Concealing merchandise in a 
store and leaving without paying

55
00:02:57,840 --> 00:03:00,640
constitutes larceny. 
The act of concealing 

56
00:03:00,640 --> 00:03:03,280
demonstrates intent to 
permanently deprive the store of

57
00:03:03,280 --> 00:03:05,040
the item. 
Pickpocketing. 

58
00:03:05,200 --> 00:03:07,960
Stealthily removing a wallet 
from someone's pocket. 

59
00:03:08,280 --> 00:03:11,320
The lack of force or threat 
differentiates it from robbery. 

60
00:03:11,640 --> 00:03:14,520
Taking a bicycle. 
Removing a bicycle parked on a 

61
00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:18,600
public street with no intention 
of returning it for legal 

62
00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:21,160
defenses for larceny. 
Claim of right. 

63
00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:24,400
The defendant believed in good 
faith that they had a legal 

64
00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:27,400
right to possess the property, 
thus negating intent. 

65
00:03:27,720 --> 00:03:30,280
Lack of intent. 
The defendant did not intend to 

66
00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:33,640
permanently deprive the owner of
the property, such as in cases 

67
00:03:33,640 --> 00:03:36,640
of borrowing or temporary use. 
Mistake of fact. 

68
00:03:36,760 --> 00:03:40,120
The defendant mistakenly took 
the property genuinely believing

69
00:03:40,120 --> 00:03:41,840
it was theirs. 
Consent. 

70
00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:44,880
The owner consented to the 
taking of the property, making 

71
00:03:44,880 --> 00:03:49,920
the ACT lawful. 5 Case Law and 
Analysis Larceny has evolved 

72
00:03:49,920 --> 00:03:52,400
through case law to include 
various nuances. 

73
00:03:52,760 --> 00:03:56,600
A landmark cases people be Davis
where the court held that the 

74
00:03:56,600 --> 00:03:59,400
defendants intent to permanently
deprive the owner must be 

75
00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:01,760
specific and proven beyond a 
reasonable doubt. 

76
00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:05,040
Courts often look for clear 
evidence of intent, which can 

77
00:04:05,040 --> 00:04:07,840
include the defendant's actions 
or statements at the time of the

78
00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:10,560
theft. 
Be embezzlement Embezzlement 

79
00:04:10,560 --> 00:04:13,720
differs from larceny primarily 
in the initial lawful possession

80
00:04:13,720 --> 00:04:16,120
of property. 
It involves the fraudulent 

81
00:04:16,120 --> 00:04:18,399
conversion of property by 
someone to whom it was 

82
00:04:18,399 --> 00:04:21,720
entrusted, typically in an 
employment or fiduciary setting.

83
00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:24,800
Embezzlement highlights the 
breach of trust and abuse of a 

84
00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:29,040
position of responsibility. 
One elements of embezzlement 

85
00:04:29,360 --> 00:04:32,040
Lawful possession. 
The defendant initially had 

86
00:04:32,040 --> 00:04:35,200
lawful possession or control of 
the property due to a position 

87
00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:39,080
of trust or responsibility, such
as an employee, agent, or 

88
00:04:39,080 --> 00:04:40,920
fiduciary. 
Conversion. 

89
00:04:41,200 --> 00:04:43,800
The defendant converted the 
property to their own use, 

90
00:04:43,920 --> 00:04:46,400
exercising unauthorized control 
over it. 

91
00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:50,280
Conversion can involve selling, 
using, or otherwise treating the

92
00:04:50,280 --> 00:04:53,680
property as the defendant's own 
intent to defraud. 

93
00:04:53,840 --> 00:04:56,560
The defendant acted with the 
intent to permanently deprive 

94
00:04:56,560 --> 00:05:00,480
the owner of the property or its
value. 2 Examples of 

95
00:05:00,480 --> 00:05:02,600
embezzlement. 
Employee theft. 

96
00:05:02,760 --> 00:05:06,080
An accountant transfers company 
funds to a personal account for 

97
00:05:06,080 --> 00:05:08,440
personal use. 
Bank teller fraud. 

98
00:05:08,640 --> 00:05:11,960
A bank teller pockets money from
a customer's deposit instead of 

99
00:05:11,960 --> 00:05:15,160
crediting it to the account. 
Fiduciary misconduct. 

100
00:05:15,320 --> 00:05:18,520
A trustee misuses of 
beneficiaries funds for personal

101
00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:21,160
expenses rather than managing 
them according to the trust 

102
00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:24,040
terms. 
Three legal defenses for 

103
00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:26,080
embezzlement. 
Lack of intent. 

104
00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:29,360
The defendant did not intend to 
defraud or permanently deprive 

105
00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:31,600
the owner of the property. 
Authority. 

106
00:05:31,760 --> 00:05:34,720
The defendant had authority or 
consent from the owner to use or

107
00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:36,880
transfer the property. 
Duress. 

108
00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:39,880
The defendant was coerced into 
embezzling the property due to 

109
00:05:39,880 --> 00:05:42,000
threats or undue pressure from 
another party. 

110
00:05:42,360 --> 00:05:46,200
For case law and analysis in 
USV. 

111
00:05:46,480 --> 00:05:49,480
Sklee, the court emphasized that
the crucial element in 

112
00:05:49,480 --> 00:05:52,280
embezzlement is the defendants 
conversion of property to their 

113
00:05:52,280 --> 00:05:54,000
own use with the intent to 
defraud. 

114
00:05:54,360 --> 00:05:56,520
The court looked into the 
defendants conduct and 

115
00:05:56,520 --> 00:05:58,880
relationship with the property 
to establish whether the 

116
00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:01,120
conversion was intentional and 
fraudulent. 

117
00:06:01,440 --> 00:06:04,640
See false pretenses. 
False pretenses involve 

118
00:06:04,640 --> 00:06:07,560
obtaining title or ownership of 
property through intentional 

119
00:06:07,560 --> 00:06:11,680
misrepresentation or deceit. 
Unlike larceny, which focuses on

120
00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:14,920
unauthorized possession, false 
pretenses emphasize the 

121
00:06:14,960 --> 00:06:17,160
acquisition of ownership through
deception. 

122
00:06:17,480 --> 00:06:21,760
One elements of false pretenses.
False representation. 

123
00:06:21,920 --> 00:06:24,480
The defendant must have 
knowingly made a false statement

124
00:06:24,480 --> 00:06:27,760
about a past or present fact, 
not a promise or a prediction 

125
00:06:27,760 --> 00:06:30,160
about the future. 
Intend to defraud. 

126
00:06:30,280 --> 00:06:33,200
The defendant must have intended
to deceive the victim and induce

127
00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:35,280
them to rely on the 
misrepresentation. 

128
00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:37,840
Reliance. 
The victim must have relied on 

129
00:06:37,840 --> 00:06:40,920
the false representation when 
transferring ownership or title 

130
00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:43,320
of the property. 
Transfer of ownership. 

131
00:06:43,480 --> 00:06:46,480
The victim must have transferred
ownership or title based on the 

132
00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:51,520
false representation, not merely
possession. 2 Examples of False 

133
00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:55,360
Pretenses Odometer Fraud Selling
a car with a rolled back 

134
00:06:55,360 --> 00:06:57,680
odometer. 
Misrepresenting the vehicle's 

135
00:06:57,680 --> 00:06:59,560
mileage to increase its sale 
price. 

136
00:06:59,880 --> 00:07:03,520
Investment scams Offering fake 
investment opportunities. 

137
00:07:03,600 --> 00:07:07,200
Convincing victims to transfer 
funds based on false promises of

138
00:07:07,200 --> 00:07:10,240
high returns. 
Property Fraud Claiming to own a

139
00:07:10,240 --> 00:07:13,200
piece of real estate to secure a
loan against it without legal 

140
00:07:13,200 --> 00:07:17,320
ownership. 3 Legal defenses for 
false pretenses. 

141
00:07:17,640 --> 00:07:19,720
Truth. 
The defendant's statement was 

142
00:07:19,720 --> 00:07:21,760
accurate and not materially 
false. 

143
00:07:22,120 --> 00:07:25,000
No intent to defraud. 
The defendant did not intend to 

144
00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:28,280
deceive the victim, perhaps 
acting under a genuine belief or

145
00:07:28,280 --> 00:07:31,080
mistake. 
Lack of Reliance The victim did 

146
00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:34,160
not rely on the false statement 
or was not influenced by it in 

147
00:07:34,160 --> 00:07:38,520
transferring ownership. 
For case law and analysis in 

148
00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:42,640
Duralanv, United States, the 
Supreme Court clarified that the

149
00:07:42,680 --> 00:07:45,720
essence of false pretenses is 
the intentional deceit used to 

150
00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:48,200
obtain property. 
The case highlighted the 

151
00:07:48,200 --> 00:07:50,840
importance of demonstrating that
the victim's decision to 

152
00:07:50,840 --> 00:07:53,880
transfer ownership was directly 
influenced by the defendants 

153
00:07:53,880 --> 00:07:58,480
Fraudulent misrepresentation 2. 
Fraud and White Collar Crimes 

154
00:07:58,840 --> 00:08:02,080
Fraud and white collar crimes 
encompass a range of nonviolent 

155
00:08:02,080 --> 00:08:05,840
offenses committed for financial
gain, often involving deception,

156
00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:08,280
manipulation, and breaches of 
trust. 

157
00:08:08,640 --> 00:08:11,400
These crimes typically occur in 
business or a professional 

158
00:08:11,400 --> 00:08:13,600
settings and can have 
significant financial and 

159
00:08:13,600 --> 00:08:17,520
reputational impacts. 
A fraud fraud is a broad term 

160
00:08:17,520 --> 00:08:20,800
encompassing various illegal 
acts characterized by deceit, 

161
00:08:20,880 --> 00:08:24,160
concealment, or violation of 
trust for personal gain. 

162
00:08:24,440 --> 00:08:27,400
It involves intentional 
misrepresentation or omission of

163
00:08:27,400 --> 00:08:30,720
material facts to induce another
depart with something of value. 

164
00:08:31,040 --> 00:08:35,520
One Types of fraud Wire fraud 
Utilizing electronic 

165
00:08:35,520 --> 00:08:39,400
communications, such as emails 
or phone calls to execute a 

166
00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:42,720
fraudulent scheme. 
Mail fraud Using the Postal 

167
00:08:42,720 --> 00:08:46,240
Service to perpetrate fraud, 
such as sending fake invoices or

168
00:08:46,240 --> 00:08:49,840
fraudulent contracts. 
Insurance fraud Intentionally 

169
00:08:49,840 --> 00:08:53,000
providing false information to 
an insurance company to receive 

170
00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:56,480
benefits or payouts, such as 
staging accidents or inflating 

171
00:08:56,480 --> 00:08:59,440
claims. 
Securities fraud manipulating 

172
00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:03,120
stock prices, engaging in 
insider trading, or providing 

173
00:09:03,120 --> 00:09:06,280
false information to investors 
to gain an unfair advantage in 

174
00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:09,600
financial markets. 2 Elements of
fraud. 

175
00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:11,920
False statement or 
representation. 

176
00:09:12,040 --> 00:09:14,240
The defendant must have made a 
false statement or 

177
00:09:14,240 --> 00:09:17,440
representation of a material 
fact, not just a harmless 

178
00:09:17,440 --> 00:09:20,440
misstatement or puffery. 
Knowledge of falsity. 

179
00:09:20,560 --> 00:09:23,000
The defendant must have known 
the statement was false or 

180
00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:24,720
misleading at the time it was 
made. 

181
00:09:25,040 --> 00:09:27,760
Intent to deceive. 
The defendant must have intended

182
00:09:27,760 --> 00:09:30,360
to deceive the victim and induce
them to rely on the false 

183
00:09:30,360 --> 00:09:33,160
information. 
Reliance The victim must have 

184
00:09:33,160 --> 00:09:35,960
relied on the false statement 
and suffered harm or loss as a 

185
00:09:35,960 --> 00:09:41,040
result. 3 Examples of Fraud 
Corporate Fraud A company 

186
00:09:41,040 --> 00:09:44,440
falsifies financial statements 
to attract investors or secure 

187
00:09:44,440 --> 00:09:47,360
loans. 
Identity theft An individual 

188
00:09:47,360 --> 00:09:51,200
uses someone else's identity to 
obtain credit, loans, or other 

189
00:09:51,200 --> 00:09:54,400
benefits. 
Real Estate Fraud A real estate 

190
00:09:54,400 --> 00:09:57,400
agent inflates property values 
to increase commissions or 

191
00:09:57,400 --> 00:10:02,080
misrepresents property details 
to buyers for legal defenses for

192
00:10:02,080 --> 00:10:04,880
fraud. 
Lack of intent The defendant did

193
00:10:04,880 --> 00:10:08,080
not intend to deceive or defraud
the victim, possibly acting 

194
00:10:08,080 --> 00:10:10,480
under a genuine mistake or 
misunderstanding. 

195
00:10:10,840 --> 00:10:14,440
Truthfulness The statements made
were accurate and not misleading

196
00:10:14,560 --> 00:10:16,520
or the defendant believed them 
to be true. 

197
00:10:16,880 --> 00:10:20,440
No reliance The victim did not 
rely on the false statement or 

198
00:10:20,440 --> 00:10:23,440
was not harmed by it, perhaps 
discovering the truth before 

199
00:10:23,440 --> 00:10:29,400
acting. 5 Case Law and Analysis 
Ender V United States The 

200
00:10:29,400 --> 00:10:32,200
Supreme Court held that 
materiality is a necessary 

201
00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:35,280
element of fraud, emphasizing 
the requirement that the false 

202
00:10:35,280 --> 00:10:38,320
statement must significantly 
influence the victims decision 

203
00:10:38,320 --> 00:10:40,760
making process. 
The case highlights the 

204
00:10:40,760 --> 00:10:43,840
importance of demonstrating both
intent and impact in fraud 

205
00:10:43,840 --> 00:10:47,480
prosecutions. 
B White Collar Crimes White 

206
00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:50,520
collar crimes refer to 
nonviolent offenses committed by

207
00:10:50,520 --> 00:10:53,440
individuals, typically in 
business or professional 

208
00:10:53,440 --> 00:10:55,680
settings, to achieve financial 
gain. 

209
00:10:56,040 --> 00:10:59,480
These crimes often involve 
breaches of trust, manipulation,

210
00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:05,040
and complex schemes. 1 Common 
White collar Crimes Embezzlement

211
00:11:05,160 --> 00:11:08,160
The unlawful taking of property 
by someone in a position of 

212
00:11:08,160 --> 00:11:11,160
trust, often involving employees
or fiduciaries. 

213
00:11:11,160 --> 00:11:14,840
Misappropriating funds. 
Bribery Offering or accepting 

214
00:11:14,840 --> 00:11:17,680
something of value to influence 
the actions of someone in a 

215
00:11:17,680 --> 00:11:21,080
position of power, such as a 
government official or corporate

216
00:11:21,080 --> 00:11:23,840
executive. 
Money laundering Concealing the 

217
00:11:23,880 --> 00:11:27,200
origins of illegally obtained 
money, typically by transferring

218
00:11:27,200 --> 00:11:30,000
it through various financial 
institutions to make it appear 

219
00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:32,080
legitimate. 
Tax evasion. 

220
00:11:32,200 --> 00:11:35,680
Illegally avoiding paying taxes 
owed by underreporting income, 

221
00:11:35,840 --> 00:11:39,320
inflating deductions, or hiding 
funds in offshore accounts. 

222
00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:42,720
Two characteristics of white 
collar crimes. 

223
00:11:43,040 --> 00:11:46,000
Deceptive practices. 
White collar crimes often 

224
00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:50,040
involve deception, manipulation,
and misrepresentation to achieve

225
00:11:50,040 --> 00:11:52,440
financial gain. 
Abuse of power. 

226
00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:55,400
Offenders may exploit their 
position of trust or authority 

227
00:11:55,400 --> 00:11:59,000
to carry out illegal activities,
often involving complex schemes 

228
00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:01,200
that are difficult to detect and
prosecute. 

229
00:12:01,520 --> 00:12:04,080
Complex schemes. 
These crimes often involve 

230
00:12:04,080 --> 00:12:07,680
intricate financial transactions
and manipulations, making them 

231
00:12:07,680 --> 00:12:12,280
challenging for investigators to
unravel and prosecute. 3 Legal 

232
00:12:12,280 --> 00:12:14,280
defenses for white collar 
crimes. 

233
00:12:14,600 --> 00:12:17,920
Lack of intent The defendant did
not intend to commit the crime 

234
00:12:17,920 --> 00:12:21,240
or cause harm, Possibly acting 
under a genuine mistake or 

235
00:12:21,240 --> 00:12:24,400
misunderstanding. 
Mistake The defendant made an 

236
00:12:24,400 --> 00:12:27,640
honest mistake or error in 
judgment, possibly due to a lack

237
00:12:27,640 --> 00:12:30,000
of understanding of complex 
regulations. 

238
00:12:30,360 --> 00:12:32,760
Entrapment. 
The defendant was coerced or 

239
00:12:32,760 --> 00:12:36,200
persuaded to commit the crime by
law enforcement, potentially as 

240
00:12:36,200 --> 00:12:39,160
part of a sting operation or 
undercover investigation. 

241
00:12:39,480 --> 00:12:44,840
For case law and analysis in 
Skilling V United States, the 

242
00:12:44,840 --> 00:12:47,760
Supreme Court addressed issues 
related to honest services 

243
00:12:47,760 --> 00:12:51,400
fraud, emphasizing the need for 
a clear breach of fiduciary duty

244
00:12:51,400 --> 00:12:54,760
involving bribery or kickbacks. 
The case underscores the 

245
00:12:54,760 --> 00:12:58,440
complexity and challenges in 
prosecuting white collar crimes,

246
00:12:58,560 --> 00:13:01,600
particularly in defining and 
proving the elements of fraud 

247
00:13:01,600 --> 00:13:06,280
and corruption. 3 Sexual 
Offenses Sexual offenses 

248
00:13:06,280 --> 00:13:08,880
encompass a range of unlawful 
acts that violate an 

249
00:13:08,880 --> 00:13:12,640
individual's sexual autonomy. 
These crimes are taken very 

250
00:13:12,640 --> 00:13:15,720
seriously and can result in 
severe legal penalties and long 

251
00:13:15,720 --> 00:13:19,160
term social consequences. 
Understanding the elements, 

252
00:13:19,280 --> 00:13:22,480
examples, and offenses 
associated with these offenses 

253
00:13:22,480 --> 00:13:25,720
is crucial for addressing their 
impact on victims in society. 

254
00:13:26,120 --> 00:13:29,680
A Rape and Sexual Assault Rape 
and sexual assault are among the

255
00:13:29,680 --> 00:13:33,640
most serious sexual offenses 
involving non consensual sexual 

256
00:13:33,640 --> 00:13:35,640
acts. 
These crimes can cause 

257
00:13:35,640 --> 00:13:38,360
significant physical and 
emotional harm to the victims 

258
00:13:38,360 --> 00:13:42,160
that are prosecuted 
aggressively. 1 Elements of Rape

259
00:13:42,160 --> 00:13:45,840
and Sexual assault. 
Non Consensual act The sexual 

260
00:13:45,840 --> 00:13:48,040
act must occur without the 
victim's consent. 

261
00:13:48,360 --> 00:13:51,960
Consent must be freely given, 
informed, and can be withdrawn 

262
00:13:51,960 --> 00:13:54,640
at any time. 
Force or threat The ACT may 

263
00:13:54,640 --> 00:13:58,120
involve the use of force, 
threats, or coercion to obtain 

264
00:13:58,120 --> 00:14:01,720
compliance from the victim. 
Incapacity The victim may be 

265
00:14:01,720 --> 00:14:05,440
unable to give consent due to 
intoxication, unconsciousness, 

266
00:14:05,520 --> 00:14:10,160
or mental incapacity. 2 Examples
of rape and sexual assault. 

267
00:14:10,520 --> 00:14:14,360
Forcible rape Forcing someone to
engage in sexual acts against 

268
00:14:14,360 --> 00:14:16,520
their will, using physical force
or threats. 

269
00:14:16,880 --> 00:14:20,440
Date rape Taking advantage of an
intoxicated or unconscious 

270
00:14:20,440 --> 00:14:23,920
person who cannot consent, often
occurring in social settings. 

271
00:14:24,240 --> 00:14:27,960
Coercion Coercing someone into 
sexual activity by threatening 

272
00:14:27,960 --> 00:14:31,040
harm or using a position of 
power to manipulate the victim. 

273
00:14:31,400 --> 00:14:35,960
3 Legal defenses for rape and 
sexual assault Consent The 

274
00:14:35,960 --> 00:14:39,240
defendant argues that the victim
consented to the sexual act, 

275
00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:41,840
highlighting any evidence of 
mutual agreement. 

276
00:14:42,160 --> 00:14:45,280
Mistaken belief. 
The defendant believed, albeit 

277
00:14:45,280 --> 00:14:48,600
mistakenly, that the victim 
consented to the ACT, often 

278
00:14:48,600 --> 00:14:51,200
requiring proof of reasonable 
grounds for the belief. 

279
00:14:51,560 --> 00:14:53,920
Alibi. 
The defendant presents evidence 

280
00:14:53,920 --> 00:14:56,680
that they were not present at 
the crime scene, providing a 

281
00:14:56,680 --> 00:15:00,640
solid defense against the 
accusations for case law and 

282
00:15:00,640 --> 00:15:03,560
analysis. 
Rape and sexual assault cases 

283
00:15:03,560 --> 00:15:05,960
often hinge on the 
interpretation of consent in the

284
00:15:05,960 --> 00:15:10,400
credibility of witnesses. 
In Michigan V Lucas, the Supreme

285
00:15:10,400 --> 00:15:12,680
Court discussed the 
admissibility of evidence 

286
00:15:12,680 --> 00:15:16,120
related to the victim's sexual 
history, emphasizing the need to

287
00:15:16,120 --> 00:15:19,000
balance the defendant's right to
a fair trial with the victim's 

288
00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:22,120
right to privacy. 
Courts often navigate complex 

289
00:15:22,120 --> 00:15:25,680
issues of consent and force, 
requiring careful examination of

290
00:15:25,680 --> 00:15:30,160
evidence and testimony. 
Be Statutory rape Statutory rape

291
00:15:30,160 --> 00:15:33,280
involves sexual activity with a 
person who is below the age of 

292
00:15:33,280 --> 00:15:36,600
consent, regardless of whether 
they willingly participated in 

293
00:15:36,600 --> 00:15:38,760
the act. 
The law considers minors 

294
00:15:38,760 --> 00:15:41,800
incapable of giving legal 
consent to sexual activities, 

295
00:15:41,880 --> 00:15:44,280
making any such act 
automatically legal. 

296
00:15:44,560 --> 00:15:49,160
One Elements of statutory rape 
Age of the victim The victim 

297
00:15:49,160 --> 00:15:52,120
must be below the legal age of 
consent, which varies by 

298
00:15:52,120 --> 00:15:55,800
jurisdiction. 
Sexual activity Engaging in any 

299
00:15:55,800 --> 00:15:59,000
form of sexual activity with the
underage victim constitutes 

300
00:15:59,000 --> 00:16:03,960
statutory rape. 2. 
Examples of statutory rape Adult

301
00:16:03,960 --> 00:16:07,400
minor relationship An adult 
having sexual intercourse with a

302
00:16:07,400 --> 00:16:10,800
15 year old despite mutual 
agreement or affection. 

303
00:16:11,120 --> 00:16:14,600
High School Seniors A high 
school senior engaging in sexual

304
00:16:14,600 --> 00:16:17,920
activity with a freshman below 
the age of consent, highlighting

305
00:16:17,920 --> 00:16:22,560
the legal implications despite 
consent. 3 Legal Defenses for 

306
00:16:22,560 --> 00:16:26,320
Statutory Rape Mistake of Age 
The defendant believed the 

307
00:16:26,320 --> 00:16:29,280
victim was above the age of 
consent, often requiring 

308
00:16:29,280 --> 00:16:32,680
evidence of reasonable belief or
misrepresentation by the victim.

309
00:16:33,000 --> 00:16:36,440
Marriage Some jurisdictions 
recognize marriage as a defense 

310
00:16:36,440 --> 00:16:40,040
to statutory rape, particularly 
in cases where the parties are 

311
00:16:40,040 --> 00:16:45,200
legally married. 4 Case Law and 
Analysis Statutory rape laws 

312
00:16:45,200 --> 00:16:48,920
focus on protecting minors from 
exploitation regardless of their

313
00:16:48,920 --> 00:16:53,680
perceived maturity or consent. 
In People V Hernandez, the court

314
00:16:53,680 --> 00:16:56,840
examined the mistake of age 
defense, emphasizing the need 

315
00:16:56,840 --> 00:16:59,080
for clear evidence that the 
defendant genuinely and 

316
00:16:59,080 --> 00:17:01,600
reasonably believed the victim 
was of legal age. 

317
00:17:01,920 --> 00:17:04,520
The case underscores the 
importance of age as a strict 

318
00:17:04,520 --> 00:17:07,920
liability factor in statutory 
rape prosecutions. 

319
00:17:08,200 --> 00:17:11,760
See sexual harassment. 
Sexual harassment involves 

320
00:17:11,760 --> 00:17:15,839
unwelcome sexual advances, 
requests for sexual favors, or 

321
00:17:15,839 --> 00:17:18,960
other verbal or physical conduct
of a sexual nature that creates 

322
00:17:18,960 --> 00:17:21,359
a hostile work or educational 
environment. 

323
00:17:21,680 --> 00:17:24,520
It is a pervasive issue that 
affects individuals across 

324
00:17:24,520 --> 00:17:27,599
various settings, leading to 
significant legal and social 

325
00:17:27,599 --> 00:17:31,440
implications. 
One types of sexual harassment 

326
00:17:31,880 --> 00:17:35,120
quid pro quo involves offering 
or withholding benefits in 

327
00:17:35,120 --> 00:17:38,320
