10.4 - Invocation to commit a criminal offence

[Skudist]

New Law:

10.4 - Invocation to commit a Criminal Offence

Nobody shall incite someone to commit a felony. Ways of incitations include but are not limited to blackmail, physical threat, promise to or give funding via money or objects in expectation of the fulfilment of the act of a felony or requesting someone to commit a felony.

Individuals, threatened with physical harm of themselves or another person should they not commit a criminal offence are not to be charged for that offence if they commit it.

Felony - Equal to the charge of the incited crime


Why should this addition be made:
Theoretically, paying someone to kill someone is legal under Paralake Law. Only the Hitman could be charged. Same goes for general incitations of criminal offences. Thus, there is a need for a law that outlaws such incitations.

This is what "Abetting" means.

Law 6.3 at this moment only refers (if anything) to crimes that already have been committed. Furthermore, it only refers to the aid of people that currently are warranted or under arrest. This law not only does not entail paying someone to commit a crime but also does not entail general beforehand assistance in the planning of a crime unless they actively take part in the actual crime.

These offences already exist.

6.7 - For the principal offender.
6.3 - All persons aiding in the planning of the offence.

The laws are designed to be broad enough that anything can be charged under them. PLPD don't realise how OP the laws are.

6.3 Aiding & Abetting​

Any person who knowingly provides assistance to a person under detainment, arrest or warrant for arrest other than providing medical assistance or formal legal consul acts unlawfully. Assistance may be, but is not necessarily limited to advice, action and financial support.

The problem with this law is, that it does not entail any criminal acts, but rather cases in which LEOs are actually after criminal offenders. 6.3 is more made in case you are harbouring criminals or helping them flee or whatever. It does not entail the assistance of criminal offenders until they are arrested, detained or warranted.

Basically, if the police don't know anything about the criminal act someone is going to do, you are free to assist them in any way unless you are actively taking part in the act. That means; supplying the criminal offender until LEOs are out to detain, arrest him or until the offender is warranted is completely legal.
