Criminal Intent.

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.

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
