Regarding Criminal Elements
Criminal Elements are a general guide intended to map the discrete elements ― the building blocks that must be proven that align with the overall requirement under 17-A §32 for the prosecution of a criminal complaint. Because statutory language and judicial interpretation play critical roles in defining these elements precisely, it is advisable to refer to the full statutory texts and related case law for comprehensive details.
In Maine, as in many jurisdictions, the formulation of a crime rests on the precise statutory elements. This
building-block
approach (clearly set out in §32 of Title 17-A) ensures that a defendant is not convicted unless
the state shows every element as charged. When analyzing any offense, it is always advisable to review the complete statutory
language (as amended by case law and subsequent legislative changes) to understand fully how these elements are interpreted
and enforced by Maine courts.
