'On the plane' like a snap-cap or a 1.00 caliber personal vibrator? Too bullet like. Would Beldar be profiled as too cone-like?
My lawyer is looking into if that is the case, that this cannot be extended as we had hoped, if it is then I will just deal with having a record the rest of my life in VA I guess, but if not then I will attempt to do the extending thing in appeals court in order to prevent having a record.
Yes, it is well established law that mens rea is satisfied by negligence, recklessness, strict liability and certain knowledge. Except for strict liability, these classes of mens rea are defined in Section 2.02(2) of the American Law Institute Model Penal Code http://www1.law.umkc.edu/suni/CrimLaw/MPC_Provisions/model_penal_code_default_rules.htm
(3) Culpability Required Unless Otherwise Provided. When the culpability sufficient to establish a material element of an offense is not prescribed by law, such element is established if a person acts purposely, knowingly or recklessly with respect thereto.
