[The defendant is not guilty of this crime if (he/she) reasonably and actually believed that the other person was age 18 or older. T the People must prove beyond a reasonable doubt that the defendant did not reasonably and actually believe that the other person ______________ <name of alleged victim> was at least 18 years old. If the People have not met this burden, you must find the defendant not guilty of this crime.]
Points and Authorities
This Court Has The Power And Duty To Grant This Instruction Request—[See CALCRIM Motion Bank # CCM-001.]
Defendant Need Not Prove Belief That Victim Was Of Age—The first sentence of CC 1070, paragraph 6, erroneously implies that the defendant is not guilty only “if (he/she) believed that the other person was age 18 or older.” At best this language conflicts with the presumption of innocence and, therefore, should be modified. (See Francis v. Franklin (1985) 471 US 307 [85 LEd2d 344; 105 SCt 1965]; see also FORECITE F 1000.4 Inst 4 [Reasonable Belief In Consent: Modification Of Burden Shifting Language; Objective Reasonable Person Standard ].)
WARNING! Federal constitutional claims may be lost without proper federalization.—To preserve federal claims, counsel should add the applicable constitutional provisions and authority to the above points and authorities and explain how those provisions will be violated under the circumstances of this case. Potential constitutional grounds for this request include, but are not limited to:
FORECITE CG 2.2 [Burden Of Proof: Elements And Essential Facts]
FORECITE CG 4.2 [Defendant Has No Burden To Prove Defense Theory Which Negates Element Of Charge]
In death penalty cases additional, federal claims should be added including, but not limited to, those in FORECITE CG 13.
