Martin v State (Alabama, 1944) - Actus Reus
- Facts: Defendant was arrested for being “drunk on a public highway” when he was actually drunk in his home, but the officers took him out onto the highway to arrest him.
- Reasoning: Because the defendant was drunk in his own home and was forcibly taken to the highway, he had not engaged in the forbidden act of being drunk on a public highway.
- Holding: Conviction reversed.
Then GHOST takes us on a wild journey from the DMV, to MTV's Punk'd, to police dance fighting training, to an exploration of self-aware Holes.
