N.C.P.I.—Crim. 216.71
FELONIOUS PERMITTING OF CHOP SHOP ACTIVITY ON PROPERTY. FELONY.
NOTE WELL. N.C. Gen. Stat. § 14-72.7(b) provides for
innocent activities to which the prohibition of this
section does not apply.
The defendant has been charged with felonious permitting of
(describe chop shop activity) on property [owned by the defendant] [in
the legal possession of the defendant].
For you to find the defendant guilty of this offense, the State must
prove three things beyond a reasonable doubt:
First, that the defendant permitted (describe place) to be used for
(describe chop shop activity).
Second, that the defendant [owned] [had legal possession of]
(describe place).
And Third, that the defendant [knew] [had reasonable grounds to
believe] that (describe place) was being used for (describe chop shop
activity).
If you find from the evidence beyond a reasonable doubt that on or
about the alleged date, the defendant knowingly permitted (describe
place) to be used for (describe chop shop activity), the defendant
[owned] [had legal possession of] (describe place), and the defendant
[knew] [had reasonable grounds to believe] the property was being used
for (describe chop shop activity), 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
more of these things, it would be your duty to return a verdict of not
guilty.
