How Each episode need to have an interesting story (its ok, to use actual events as the basis of your episode-That way, its “ripped from the headlines.”) You may work with a partner but you must hand in your own story (ok to use similar elements..) You must also include: • A Crime with all of the correct elements. It can be a crime against the person or property. • One of the 4 types of criminal defenses.
My Grade • Do you correctly use the crime and its elements. • Do you correctly use the defense and its elements Example- Your story describes a person who accidentally kills someone but you charge them with 1st degree murder. Be creative! Its ok to share ideas with classmates but you must write your own story. If nothing else, use one from TV!
