IANAL: I'm not sure if exact case law exists, but I would guess use drunkness as a defense for attacking a computer network would be held to the same standard as when used for homicide or involuntary mansluaghter, i.e., NOT. The judge might view drunkness as well as other past behaviors (or bad behaviors) as mitigating circumstances when entering the sentence... cdv Chris DeVoney Clinical Research Center Bioinformatics University of Washington -----Original Message----- From: full-disclosure-admin () lists netsys com [mailto:full-disclosure-admin () lists netsys com] On Behalf Of Paul Farrow Sent: Friday, December 05, 2003 8:40 PM To: full-disclosure () lists netsys com Subject: [Full-disclosure] Drunkeness Would any of you people out there, both boys and girls (if any ;)) consider that drunkeness would be a good excuse for taking over say, a university network, or a government server... although i must admit i have done neither, would drunkeness hold up in court as a suitable excuse, or would insanity be a better line to follow? :) off topic i know, but still, a fairly curious question :) _______________________________________________ Full-Disclosure - We believe in it.
