You be the criminal defense attorney For this discussion, identify two of the crimes mentioned in the text, and choose two defenses that a criminal defense attorney could successfully use in defense of that crime. For example, you could use the statute of limitations defense for robbery, but not murder, because there is no statute of limitations for murder charges. Likewise, insanity could be a defense to arson, because it negates the "willful" requirement, or element, of this crime.
