What are the 4 mental states?
The Model Penal Code explicitly defines four mental states (called “culpability”) to be used in criminal codes (purposely, knowingly, recklessly, and negligently)..
What is actus reus and mens rea?
Translated from Latin, actus reus means “guilty act;” and mens rea means “guilty mind.” Now, why are those two phrases so important in the criminal law? The answer is because those two phrases describe the two basic elements the government needs to prove in order to convict a person of a crime..
In general, a crime consists of two elements: a guilty mental state (the mens rea) and a guilty act (the actus reus).
There must be concurrence between the guilty mental state and the guilty act.
This means that both elements must occur at the same time, or at essentially same time.
