CRIMINAL IMPERSONATION

In order to find Defendant guilty of Criminal Impersonation, you must find the

State has proved the following two (2) elements beyond a reasonable doubt:

(1) Defendant pretended to be a public servant;

(2) Defendant wore or displayed, without authority, any identification,

uniform, or badge by which a public servant is lawfully identified; and

(3) Defendant acted intentionally.

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

pretend to be a public servant.

“Public servant” means any officer or employee of the State or any political

subdivision thereof, including legislators and judges, and any person participating as

juror, advisor or consultant in performing a governmental function but the term does

not include witnesses. This definition includes persons who are candidates for office

or who have been elected to office but who have not yet assumed office.

In the context of this offense, “injure" means to cause tangible or intangible

monetary harm or loss.
