Imagine a defense attorney paid a member of the jury $5,000 in order to get them to vote "not guilty" during the trial. The juror takes the money but then votes to convict anyway and returns the money to the defense lawyer. Later, the initial payment is discovered by investigators. The lawyer claims that no crime was committed because they didn't get what they wanteda "not guilty" verdictand the funds were eventually returned anyway. Is the defense lawyer correct?? Yes; if there was no gain, then no crime was committed. Yes, but only because the funds were eventually released. No; incomplete crimes are covered by criminal law. Yes; however, the lawyer could be sued in civil court
