That is simply not correct. Nearly all laws have exceptions which mean you can be found innocent under the right circumstances, even if you admit to doing whatever you're charged of.
For example, you can kill people in self-defense many places in the world. Ambulances and firetrucks can drive 150 mph if they are doing it to save people's life.
- abduhl 4y agoThese are defenses to a crime and they are explicitly provided for in the law. You don’t just get to assert a random defense just because you want to, which is what your approach is. There is no “good faith” or “did the right thing defense” to the law here, as you noted. Defenses are not required for all criminal laws and, in general, do not exist for crimes.
