Answer:

B. extortion.

Explanation:

In the context of law, extortion is defined as a criminal offence where an offender/criminal obtains something, particularly money or property, through force or violent threats.

If we look into the above scenario, the two criminals have committed a series of offences, however, they did not force nor threat the client to invest his money into their scheme. Therefore, they cannot be charged with extortion by the court.

Instead they would be charged with criminal conspiracy for scheming a fraud, money laundering for transfering the money into their family business to conceal income and deceit for deceiving the man with lies.

13th Amendment - Freedom<br> What did the South do to Limit These Actions?
vlada-n [284]

Answer:

The 13th Amendment supposedly ended chattel slavery in the South, but the South managed to limit these actions in the following ways. The 13th Amendment allows involuntary servitude if convicted of a crime, so this served as a loophole in the amendment. The Southern whites also created "black codes." This led to new types of offenses for not showing proper respect to white people or malicious mischief. However, these offenses could range from a felony to a misdemeanor. Therefore, several black people were wrongly convicted of "crimes."
