First direct harassment letter to Cadet Blake Page
Special K Date: 12-04-2012 Subject: Military Text. See Paragraph 60. Elements. (1)
That the accused communicated certain language expressing a present
determination or intent to wrongfully injure the person, property, or
reputation of another person, presently or in the future; (2) That the communication was made known to that person or to a third person; (3) That the communication was wrongful; and (4)
That, under the circumstances, the conduct of the accused was to the
prejudice of good order and discipline in the armed forces or was of a
nature to bring discredit upon the armed forces. Explanation. To
establish the threat it is not necessary that the accused actually
intended to do the injury threatened. However, a declaration made under
circumstances which reveal it to be in jest or for an innocent or
legitimate purpose, or which contradict the expressed intent to commit
the act, does not constitute this offense. Nor is the offense committed
by the mere statement of intent to commit an unlawful act not involving
injury to another. See also paragraph 109 concerning bomb threat. Lesser included offenses. (1) Article 117â€"provoking speeches or gestures (2) Article 80â€"attempts |
