Evaluate at least one of the cases from the Jepson document referenced in resource (2) above. In your evaluation, determine whether the defendant likely would have been held criminally liable for attempt had the events taken place in the U.S. Be sure to discuss whether it is possible to prove both attempt actus reus and attempt mens rea in your chosen case(s). Use the MPC Substantial Steps test to assess attempt actus reus liability in your chosen case(s). As always, be sure to fully explain your legal analysis and conclusions.
