Study the following situations and determine if the accused is guilty of
kidnapping under the MPC.
1. During a bank robbery, one of the robbers holds a gun to the bank president’s head while
her cohorts are getting the money from safe. She tells the president he her “hostage”. The
robbery takes 10 minutes to complete after which the robbers leave the bank president
unharmed.
2. A farmer picks up a mentally ill hitchhiker and him to his farm, which is 50 miles from the
nearest town. The hitchhiker is told he has to work at the farm until he is able to pay the
farmer back for the ride. Because the hitchhiker is mentally ill, he doesn’t realize that he can
simply walk away from the farm and find another ride to town.
3. A 13-year-old girl agrees to go to an out-of-state concert with 16-year-old boy from her
high school. They attend the concert without letting her parents know and don’t return for
three days, during which time her parents have informed the police that their daughter is
missing.
4. A father, who was granted the right during a divorce processing to see his daughter on
the weekends (visitation rights), doesn’t bring the girl back on Sunday night. He and
daughter have gone to Mexico for two weeks without obtaining prior approval of the mother,
who was granted custody by the court.
NAME THE CRIME
1. “I arrived home late and found that I’d forgotten my keys. I didn’t want to wake my wife
up, and I saw there was a ladder in the garden of the house next door. I got the ladder and
climbed in. We’ve just moved house and I didn’t realize I was in the wrong street …”
2. “I was walking my dog when I saw the gun lying on the ground. I picked it up-it was still

warm and at that moment, I saw the body lying in the long grass. I went across to look and it
was my business partner. That’s when the police arrived …”
3. “OK, so there are 200 copies of the video. That’s perfectly true, but I had no intention of
selling them. I’m collector.”
4. “ You misunderstand me. When I offered him the money, I meant it as a gift. I know that
life can be difficult for a young man on a police salary, especially if he has a family, young
children etc. It is not easy and I know that. I just wanted to help. I didn’t expect him to do
anything in return …”
5. “After leaving the office I realized I’d forgotten my umbrella. I went back in to get it. When
I went in, I noticed that the photocopier was still turned on. It had been working very badly
all day, and I decided to quickly see want was wrong with it before going home. I made a
few test copies of documents that were in the office. I din’t even look at what I was copying.
The machine seemed to be working much better. I put the copies in my briefcase – intending
to use the other side as notepaper. I didn’t believe in wasting paper. At that moment MR.
Sanders came out of his office…”
