Question 2

Criminal Intent. While at a grocery store, Moses Racquemore stuffed two packages of meat into his pants and was just pulling his shirt down over them when he noticed that the store manager and a security guard were watching him. He returned the meat to the counter, but he was arrested for shoplifting anyway. Had Racquemore committed a criminal act?

Answer to Question 1

d

Answer to Question 2

Criminal intent
Two elements must exist simultaneously for a person to be convicted of a crime: (1) the performance of a prohibited act, and (2) a specified state of mind or intent on the part of the actor. Most crimes require an act of commission; that is, a person must do something to be accused of a crime. For theft, the guilty act is the taking of another person's property. What constitutes a wrongful mental state varies according to the wrongful action. For theft, the mental state involves both the knowledge that the property belongs to another and the intent to deprive the owner of it. Whether particular actions constitute a crime is a question of fact. In this case, it was determined that Raquemore's acts were sufficient to constitute a crime.
