UJI 14-141. General criminal intent.1
In addition to the other elements of __________________ (identify crime or crimes),
the state must prove to your satisfaction beyond a reasonable doubt that the defendant
acted intentionally when the defendant committed the crime. A person acts intentionally
when the person purposely does an act which the law declares to be a crime [, even
though they may not know that their act is unlawful].2 Whether the defendant acted
intentionally may be inferred from all of the surrounding circumstances, such as the
manner in which the defendant acts, the means used, [and] the defendant’s conduct
[and any statements made by the defendant].2
