State of Mississippi Supreme Court of Mississippi 92 Miss. 415, 46 So. 627, 1908 Miss. LEXIS 245 (1908) Will Stokes and Cora Lane, who were having an affair, hired Shorty Robertson to kill Lane s husband, Wallace Lane, for the proceeds of life insurance policies. They promised Robertson $1,000 and agreed that he would lay in wait for the husband on a particular night at a particular place to surprise the husband as he returned from a Lodge meeting. But Robertson reported his conversations to the police, who planned to hide themselves at the appointed place and time. The agreed upon night was rainy. Robertson went to Lane s house, where he found Stokes, and together they went to the planned location. Stokes produced a loaded gun and showed Robertson where he should wait. As Stokes was handing the gun to Robertson, the police intervened and arrested him. No money ever changed hands. In fact, the husband did not plan on taking his usual route home that night. Stokes was convicted of attempt to murder Wallace Lane. He appealed on the basis that the facts did not constitute an attempt....all the authorities hold, that, in order to constitute an attempt, the act attempted must be a possibility; and counsel for appellant argue from this that the appellant could not have committed this crime at the time he was arrested, because Lane was not even there, and therefore, they say, no conviction could be had. It was no fault of Stokes that the crime was not committed. He had the gun, and the testimony warrants the conclusion that it had been taken for the purpose of killing Lane. It only became impossible by reason of the extraneous circumstance that
5 Section 11 Impossibility 353 Lane did not go that way, and, further, that defendant was arrested and prevented from committing the murder. [The impossibility defense] has application only to a case where it is inherently impossible to commit the crime. It has no application to a case where it becomes impossible for the crime to be committed, either by outside interference or because of miscalculation as to a supposed opportunity to commit the crime which fails to materialize; in short, it has no application to the case when the impossibility grows out of extraneous facts not within the control of the party [t]he defendant s conviction of attempt to kill and murder Wallace Lane is affirmed. Model Penal Code (Official Draft 1962) Section Criminal Attempt (1) Definition of Attempt. A person is guilty of an attempt to commit a crime if, acting with the kind of culpability otherwise required for commission of the crime, he: (a) purposely engages in conduct which would constitute the crime if the attendant circumstances were as he believes them to be; or (b) when causing a particular result is an element of the crime, does or omits to do anything with the purpose of causing or with the belief that it will cause such result without further conduct on his part; or (c) purposely does or omits to do anything which, under the circumstances as he believes them to be, is an act or omission constituting a substantial step in a course of conduct planned to culminate in his commission of the crime.... Section ; Mitigation in Cases of Lesser Danger;... (1)... (2) Mitigation. If the particular conduct charged to constitute a criminal attempt, solicitation or conspiracy is so inherently unlikely to result or culminate in the commission of a crime that neither such conduct nor the actor presents a public danger warranting the grading of such offense under this Section, the Court shall exercise its power under Section 6.12 to enter judgment and impose sentence for a crime of lower grade or degree or, in extreme cases, may dismiss the prosecution....
