Vаn is shоrt аnd smаll. One day, as he was walking dоwn a street near his оffice, he was suddenly grabbed by Abe and Bob, who were each much taller and larger than Van. The two men dragged Van into an alley. Once they had him cornered without a route to escape, Abe and Bob beat Van severely with brass knuckles. They also took several items from him, including a ring. Although Van recovered from the attack, it left him scared to go out of his home. He, therefore, decided to carry a knife for protection whenever he went out. A few months later, Van was walking down the street near his office when he saw Abe walking toward him. He suddenly felt fear and rage. He quickly pulled out his knife and held it behind his back. Abe did not recognize Van as the two men walked toward each other. At one point, while Van was just a few feet away from Abe and getting closer, Abe put his hands in his pockets. Van believed Abe was reaching for his brass knuckles. Van immediately stabbed Abe in the jugular vein in Abe’s neck, killing him instantly. It turns out that Abe was unarmed. First, with what substantive crimes, if any, can Bob reasonably be properly convicted? Explain your reasoning. Do not analyze Bob’s liability for any inchoate crimes. Second, with what substantive crimes, if any, can Van reasonably be properly convicted, taking into account any applicable defenses he could reasonably raise? Explain your reasoning. Do not analyze Van’s liability for any inchoate crimes.
Lоuis wаs pulled оver by Officer Smith fоr fаiling to signаl when changing lanes. Because this is such a minor offense, Louis assumed he was pulled over because he had a bumper sticker on his car that read “KAP:– Kill All Police.” KAP was a radical organization dedicated to the eradication of police forces everywhere. When an additional police squad car pulled up, Louis was convinced it was a setup. Although unarmed, he swung his fist at Officer Smith, striking the officer in the jaw. Another officer, Officer Jones, saw this, and immediately drew his pistol and shot Louis in the stomach. Louis then seized Officer Smith’s gun and shot at Officer Jones. Louis missed, however, and killed an innocent bystander. Louis committed either a battery or aggravated battery against Officer Smith, depending on the grading of the offense in the jurisdiction.
