It does not apply to situations that : that do not help others directly. They are basically a "shield" : that may be used to protect against a wrongful death claim. They in : effect act as a form of estoppel and are a "shield not a sword" as : with an equitable estoppel. : <Snip> : : If we take a copy of a (names changed to protect the guilty) charge : sheet for failure to render assistance; : : Person X, the defendant in this case, has been charged with the : crime of failure to render assistance. : To prove that the defendant committed this crime, the state must : prove beyond a reasonable doubt each of the following elements: : (1) the defendant was involved in an accident while driving a : vehicle; (2) the accident resulted in injury to or the death of : another person; (3) at the time the accident occurred, the : defendant knew (his) (her) vehicle was involved in an accident; : (4) the defendant either knew of the injury or knew that the : accident was of such a nature that one would reasonably anticipate : that it resulted in injury to a person; and (5) the defendant did : not render reasonable assistance to the injured person. : : See for example AS 28.35.060(a) & (c); Kimoktoak v. State, 584 P.2d : 25, 32 (Alaska 1978). : So basically these are all arguments which are unrelated to the : issue of a discovery of any illegal activity. : Regards, : Craig : : Craig, Thank you, I thought that the Good Samaritan laws where there to protect the lay person more then the professional who might stop and render aid to an injured person. - ----- Herman Live Long and Prosper ___________________ _-_ \==============_=_/ ____.---'---`---.____ \_ \ \----._________.----/ \ \ / / `-_-' __,--`.`-'..'-_ /____ ||- `--.____,-' -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: PGP 8.0.3 Comment: Space the Final Frontier iQA/AwUBRLaNbB/i52nbE9vTEQJsggCg2NAuVKYEexdUOp0O7fTi1ANOlFgAn1tP z7ruYZpzfy5/4hXfhSDFwb67 =GJxI -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This List Sponsored by: Cenzic Concerned about Web Application Security?
