Midterm Review
Leben suggests you divide your about equally between (a) thinking and outlining and (b) writing.
Orphan Annie grew up in an orphanage. The orphanage was run by Miss Hannigan, who tormented the
orphans by telling them no one loved them and forcing them to clean the bathrooms. Years later, Annie
is in law school and has a professor, Professor Jones, who looks a little like Miss Hannigan. One day in
class, Professor Jones says aloud in class that “no one loves orphans.” Annie snaps, reacting with strong
but silent anger. When class ends, 30 minutes later, Annie walks up to Professor Jones and stabs her.
Professor Jones dies from the injuries.
What offenses might Annie be convicted of under the common law and the Model Penal Code?
