Once inside, the defendant, mistakenly believing that larceny applied only to the taking of items valued at over $100, decided to take the neighbor's lawnmower (worth $75) in order to trade it in on a new mower. However, on the way to the store with the mower, he was involved in an automobile accident, totaling the car. In a common law jurisdiction, of what property is the defendant guilty of larceny

Answer:

In a common law jurisdiction, the property that the defendant is guilty of larceny is the lawnmower.

Explanation:

Larceny or theft is the intentional possession of someone's property for the purpose of permanently depriving the owner of its use.  The property may be the person's identity, intellectual property, services, and personal property.  Though the automobile was totally ruined, the neighbor did not initially intend to dispossess the owner of the car.  But he intended to dispossess the owner of the lawnmower since he was about to trade it in for a new one, which will belong to him and not the former owner.

What are your thoughts on this interview? Does Richard Clarke have a point when discussing breaking the Department of Homeland S
irina [24]

1. Richard Clarke does not have a point when he discussed breaking the Department of Homeland Security into multiple departments because what this achieves is increased departmentalization.

2. I would not split the Department of Homeland Security into multiple departments.  Rather, I would split the department into operational units to manage the various threats that the United States faces while keeping the department as one.

<h3>What are the goals of the Department of Homeland Security?</h3>

The Department of Homeland Security, created after the 9/11 attacks, to strengthen the security architecture of the nation at home, has the responsibility to pursue the following security goals:

  • Prevent terrorism
  • Enhance security
  • Secure and manage U.S. borders
  • Enforce and administer U.S. immigration laws.

Under these broad goals, the Department of Homeland Security oversees the national security of the United States from numerous threats.

Some of the direct responsibilities of the Department of Homeland Security include:

  • Border security
  • Aviation security
  • Countering terrorism
  • Emergency response
  • Chemical facility inspection
  • IT and cybersecurity security
  • Natural disaster planning and response.

Thus, instead of discussing splitting the Department of Homeland Security into multiple departments, Richard Clarke should look at ways to strengthen and empower the department to achieve its goals.
