Question: How do I get this to a business law tutor? It does not give me that option when I submit. **This is my last homework

How do I get this to a business law tutor? It does not give me that option when I submit.

**This is my last homework assignment and I really need some help. I have to answer the following questions with the given facts, as given true.

I am not to argue that a fact is "unlikely" or "not believable." I have to take the facts as they are and then identify what crime (if any) has been committed. I have to discuss the elements of each possible crime and give a legal analysis. I must cite all relevant cases from the text to support my conclusions.

**Instructions: I am to read the fact pattern below. I have to answer the questions at the end of the fact pattern. Assume the facts to be true. If you need to make reasonable inferences from the facts, please do so. But, do not make inferences that change the facts. If you need more facts, state as much, and move on. This discussion board is worth double the normal points. That means you'll need to explain instead of just giving me your conclusions. You need to "show off" here and prove to me that you not only read the material, but that you understand how to apply it.

I am to address all of the individuals. Please determine what crimes, if any, are suggested by the facts. Consider all possible crimes, as well as theories of liability. Second, determine what defenses, if any, are suggested by the facts. Discuss the likelihood of their success and evaluate the likelihood of successful prosecution for each offense. Answer in detail.

Organization is importantplease organize your answer so you are not drifting all over the fact pattern. Hint (!): you may want to organize according to the individual you will charge (talk about all offenses suggested by the facts & evaluate the elements of those offense(s); then address all defenses suggested by the facts & evaluate their likelihood of success).

** Note: I am not use the consolidated offense of "theft"- it encompasses all the common law "taking crimes," and thus I cannot tell if you understand the different common law crimes. Instead, use the various common law definitions discussed in your chapter (i.e. larceny, embezzlement, false pretenses, etc.). When it comes to the offense of burglary, you may use either the common law definition set forth in your chapter, or the modern definitions contained in the Arizona Revised Statutes, ARS 13-1802 (Links to an external site.)

Facts:

  1. Frank owned "In and Out Cleaners," a dry cleaning business. His employee, Marcia, was a young student working her way through college. On orders with high-end clothes, Marcia would take an item of clothing, sell it on eBay, and pocket the money. She would then explain to the customers that their item was lost and offer them free dry cleaning services in exchange. Thus far, she has sold $2500 in customer clothing and given away $500 in free cleaning services. For Christmas, Frank bought a Keurig coffee machine for his employees to use (they just have to bring their own k-cups). Saturday after everyone had left for the weekend, Marcia took the Keurig home with her. She knew that her sister, Jennifer, an avid coffee drinker, was in need of a new coffee maker. She told Jennifer that she had found the Keurig at a garage sale for $25 earlier that morning. Jennifer paid Marcia the $25, thanked her, and took the Keurig. What crime(s), if any?
  2. William just de-planed his flight into Chicago's O'Hare International Airport. He was making his way to baggage claim when he came into Slick Rick's sights. With stealth precision, Rick took William's wallet out of his back pocketall unbeknownst to William. As William made his way to his car, another industrious thug, Douglas Fresh, was waiting and watching. When the terminal bus drove off, Douglas walked by him, cut the strap on his briefcase, and ran off into the night with William's briefcase.
  3. Rod and Jane, avid automobile aficionados, spent Friday at the Detroit Auto Show, looking at the newest makes/models of automobiles. They left a back door open and returned that night to worship the new 2021 Ford Bronco. Dying to take it for a test ride, Jane disabled the alarm, and the two of them rolled it out a side sliding overhead door. They then cruised around the block, fully intending to bring it back after a few quick maneuvers in the neighborhood. They were caught by police after their second spinout in a nearby cul-de-sac. What crime, if any?
  4. Kelly was leaving the grocery store. As she loaded the groceries into her car, she was approached by a white utility van, with a magnetic label on the door which read, "Joe's Electronics." Two college-aged males opened the side sliding door and began to chat with Kelly. The males were wearing khaki golf shorts and red polo shirts. In the van was a set of high-end speakers (retail value of over $2000). They told Kelly that a customer had refused delivery and they did not want to waste gas returning to the warehouse, or waste time/effort/money to re-box and restock them. They offered her the set for $100. In need of new speakers for her apartment, Kelly jumped at the deal. What crime, if any?
  5. Chris threw a Super Bowl party for 25 of his friends. The party lasted until almost 1am the next morning, when the last of the friends left. Because he worked the next morning, Chris was in a hurry to get to bed. The few drinks he had sent him into a very deep sleep. So deep in fact that he did not hear one of the partygoers, Amy, emerge from his hall closet. While at the party, Amy noticed Chris' new iPad Pro. She knew Chris worked for Apple and always had the best technology toys. Amy went into Chris' office, took the iPad Pro and left his house through an unlocked front door. Realizing that she should have also taken the Bluetooth headphones next to it, she had to think quickly. She searched the backyard and found a long tree branch. She stuck the branch through an open window in Chris' office, looped it around his Bluetooth headphones, and pulled them out through the window. Mission complete. What crime(s), if any?
