When does a crimminal become a crimminal?
Is it when the crime is commited?
Is it once the judge decides the court case?
For example...the mosque guy......he did what he did....no court case yet..... is he a criminal?
Maybe he is too much of an extreme example as perhaps he has a reasonable insanity defence.
Lets say that I threaten to travel to Perry's house and kick his head in...… not that I ever would Perry is at completely zero risk from that ever happening from me.
But for an example lets say that I did and Perry took it as a credible threat..... as far as I understand that is a crime.
There is no argument about what I did (IN THE EXAMPLE NOT REAL LIFE!!!!!!!)
Am I a criminal for what I have done..... or not a criminal since I haven't been convicted of anything yet.
What if Perry lays a complaint but the Police decide not to prosecute so I'm never convicted....I still did what I did.
Is the line in the sand a conviction or is it the act??
