  • [...] the methods and manifestations of identity theft are ever increasing in their diversity. THE FAMILIAR MODEL OF TRADITIONAL THEFT CRIME CLASSIFICATION In order to effectively make the case that identity theft statutes should be re-crafted to more closely resemble the framework by which traditional theft crimes are delineated, it is first necessary to note the basic classifications delineated by that framework and the basis upon which those delineations are made.\n68 Another benefit lies in the fact that society at large - i.e., citizens oüier dian defendants - enjoys a greater predictability in criminal law, as imprecision largely precludes predictability.69 By imprecisely labeling an identity-related crime "theft" when it meets traditional requirements for, and may be more accura...

  • Theories of coercion exist across multiple disciplines to explicate the ability of one actor, the coercer, to diminish the free will of another, the coercee, in the absence of overt physical force. A valid claim of coercion places legal blame on the coercer or relinquishes the coercee from legal responsibility for a coerced act or omission. Defining the point at which coercion occurs, however, is the conceptually more difficult task. Recently, coercion has emerged as a significant source of analytic concern in a developing area of the law-contemporary involuntary labor or human trafficking. It is in this setting where coercion is explicitly codified as a fundamental legal element in human-trafficking crimes. However, the laws addressing human trafficking continue to struggle with deline...

  • In addition to requiring subjective culpability, criminal offenses typically involve two objective features: action and harm. In the paradigmatic case, both features are present, but criminal law also allows for liability where either of them is absent. Rules governing omission liability enable punishment where the offender performs no act, while rules defining inchoate crimes (such as attempt) impose liability where the offender causes no harm. In different ways, these two sets of rules establish the minimum threshold of objective conduct-to use the classic term, the minimum actus reus-required for criminal liability. The absolute floor for a criminal actus reus, then, would be defined by the intersection of these two sets of rules. The prospect of liability for "inchoate omissions"-i...
