DOC 373.09DOC 373.09Defenses. The following, if established by a youth by a preponderance of the evidence are complete defenses to alleged violations of the conduct rules under this chapter:
DOC 373.09(1)(1)Mental incapacity. At the time of the conduct, the youth, as a result of mental disease or defect, lacked substantial capacity either to appreciate the wrongfulness of the conduct or to conform to the conduct rules.
DOC 373.09(2)(2)Involuntary intoxication. At the time of the conduct, the youth, as a result of involuntary intoxication, lacked substantial capacity either to appreciate the wrongfulness of the conduct or to conform to the conduct rules. This subsection does not afford a defense if the intoxicant was taken voluntarily, unless the intoxicant was taken consistent with a proper prescription.
DOC 373.09(3)(3)Mistake. The youth honestly erred and the error negates the existence of a state of mind essential to the conduct rule violation.
DOC 373.09(4)(4)Self-Defense. A youth may use the minimum amount of force necessary to prevent death or bodily injury to self or in defending a third person. A youth may not continue to exercise self-defense after an order by staff to stop. In determining whether the minimum force was used in exercising self-defense, staff shall consider:
DOC 373.09(4)(a)(a) Whether the aggressor used a weapon.
DOC 373.09(4)(b)(b) The size of the youth invoking a self-defense claim in relation to the size of the aggressor.
DOC 373.09(4)(c)(c) The opportunity of the youth who claims self-defense to flee or to obtain assistance from staff.
DOC 373.09(4)(d)(d) Whether staff were nearby.
DOC 373.09(5)(5)Orders. A youth may disobey a conduct rule when expressly authorized to disobey it by staff.
