Re: Proof that it is a crime (was: Is it me, or is Steven at it again?)

3. (a) Pretends to be a public servant, or wears or displays without
authority any uniform, badge, insignia or facsimile thereof by which
such public servant is lawfully distinguished, or falsely expresses by
his words or actions that he is a public servant or is acting with
approval or authority of a public agency or department; and (b) so acts
with intent to induce another to submit to such pretended official
authority, to solicit funds or to otherwise cause another to act in
reliance upon that pretense.

Thanks for being intrepid enough to post the actual text that I was too lazy to before.

What's easy to show is 3a; the moron did that himself! What can't be shown from what we have seen so far - but what seems to most of us more probable than not - is 3b. Being that this would be a criminal matter, however, 3b has to be shown to the criminal standard of proof.
