Child Neglect – You are a prosecutor negotiating a plea bargain for a woman who is accused of child neglect. It is her third off

ense of child neglect, and this time the child nearly starved to death. You have to option of accepting a plea bargain that would give her five years of probation and allow her to continue to raise her child. If you decline the plea bargain, she faces a minimum of three years imprisonment; the child will be taken into state care, and possibly placed in a foster home. The child, who is eight, does not want to be separated from his mother. The mother, who has an IQ of 81, seems remorseful that the child has been harmed and does not fully understand the charges against her.
a. Which choice will you make? What else can you do?
b. Does the mother appear to possess the required mens rea? Does this matter regarding her sentence? Regarding the child’s welfare?

Answer:

this is a hard on seeing as how the mother has below average IQ scores I think you should decline the plea and put the kid in foster care but have the mom doing some sort of therapy while away and when she is released spend quality supervised time watching her and the kid and if she makes horrible mistakes as before then she should not be allowed to keep the child. despite wanting to please the child we are adults and have to do what is right for the child

What intent is present in case of crimes, such as theft, burglary and robbery?
Verdich [7]

Answer:

"Burglary (entering a building with the intent to commit a crime inside) and larceny (theft) are two different crimes, although burglaries are often committed for the purpose of theft. Burglary laws are intended to protect the sanctity and privacy of people's homes and other structures."

"Most people associate both terms with theft. But as it turns out, burglary occurs when a person enters a building for the purpose of committing a crime. ... Robbery, on the other hand, means that an assailant is forcing or threatening to force another person to give up something."

"Larceny (Theft)

To commit the crime of larceny, also known as theft, petty theft, or grand theft, a person must take someone else’s property without permission and with the intention to permanently deprive the owner of its use or possession. A theft may occur during the course of a burglary, but it can also occur as a separate incident. For example, shoplifting is theft, as is taking milk money from a schoolmate's backpack."
