Well, you are tiresome,there are crimes that require intent and some that don't.

Right, but "intent" is not the same as "motive," now is it?

There are strict liability crimes for example.

Which goes against your claim that you need to prove motive before you can prove a crime, don't you think?

So motive is not always necessary element.

But you just claimed that it was.

So, you voted for motives before you voted against them. Gotcha.

And trust me, I almost certainly went to a better law school than you.

Are you dull? If you don't get the point that there are different kinds of crime that require different level of "intent" that's too bad. Lastly I never claimed that all crimes require motive. But some do and the motive for Sites actions are clear for all to see except obviously you.Perhaps you should learn to understand an argument before you try to oppose it. Did they have remedial rational thaught at MailU?
