UNLAWFULLY ADMINISTERING CONTROLLED

OR COUNTERFEIT SUBSTANCES OR NARCOTIC

DRUGS

In order to find Defendant guilty of Unlawfully Administering a Controlled

or Counterfeit Substance or Narcotic Drugs, you must find the State has proved the

following three (3) elements beyond a reasonable doubt:

(1) Defendant administered a drug or substance to a person without that

person’s consent;

(2) The drug or substance was not administered as a lawful medical or

therapeutic treatment; and

(3) Defendant acted intentionally.

"Drug" is any substance or preparation capable of producing any alteration

of the physical, mental or emotional condition of a person.

“Intentionally” means it was Defendant’s conscious objective or purpose to

cause stupor, unconsciousness or other alteration of a person’s physical, mental or

emotional condition.

“Consent” means the voluntary agreement by a person who has sufficient

mental capacity to make an intelligent choice to do something. It means a person

deliberately or voluntarily approved or agreed with the act of another.
