ABSTRACT

Charles was angry at his girlfriend, Josephine, as she had been unfaithful. Charles asked Andrew, who had recently discharged himself from a psychiatric hospital, to rape Josephine. Andrew agreed. He lay in wait for her near her house. He saw a woman approach and, believing her to be Josephine, he attacked and raped her. In fact, the woman attacked was not Josephine, but her neighbour, Kathy. When arrested, Andrew maintained that he did not think that rape was against the law.
