UNLAWFUL SALE OF THE REMAINS OF AN UNBORN CHILD FROM [ABORTION] [MISCARRIAGE]. FELONY.
211.6 UNLAWFUL SALE OF THE REMAINS OF AN UNBORN CHILD FROM
[ABORTION] [MISCARRIAGE]. FELONY.
The defendant has been charged with the unlawful sale of the
remains1 of an unborn child from [abortion] [miscarriage].
For you to find the defendant guilty of this offense the State must
prove two things beyond a reasonable doubt:
First, that defendant sold2 the remains of an unborn child resulting
from [abortion] [miscarriage].
And Second, that the defendant did so knowingly.
If you find from the evidence beyond a reasonable doubt that on or
about the alleged date the defendant knowingly sold the remains of an
unborn child resulting from [abortion] [miscarriage], it would be your
duty to return a verdict of guilty. If you do not so find or have a
reasonable doubt as to one or both of these things, it would be your
duty to return a verdict of not guilty.
