Shanice has been selling drugs here and there for the past few years. She doesn’t make a lot of money, but it’s enough to get by. She has befriended Rizzo who claims to have a big job for her. Typically, she only sells marijuana but he claims she can make a lot more selling crack cocaine. She is very hesitant because she knows of the harsh penalties associated with crack, but Rizzo continuously pressures her to come work for him and makes statements like "if she values their friendship, she would start dealing crack for him." Eventually after months of convincing she gives in to Rizzo. It turns out Rizzo is an undercover agent. Under which test will Shanice have the best chances of an acquittal if she faces criminal charges?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Shanice didn't mean to sell crack cocaine, she was manipulated by the undercover agent to do it so, statement that they wouldn't be friends any more if she didn't do it.

Explanation:

If Shanice face criminal charges, she will have the best chances of an acquittal under the test that she was pressured by the undercover agent to do it. She didn't mean to sell crack cocaine, she was very aware about the harsh penalties associated with crack and that's why she only sold marijuana. The undercover agent manipulated her and continuously pressured her to work for him, telling her he had a big job for her. It was the agent idea in the first place and he used excuses as " if she values their friendship, she would start dealing crack for him" to make her sell crack cocaine. He totally corrupted her and lead her to the wrong path he wanted to.
