N.C.P.I.—Crim. 222.29
INJURING AN ENERGY FACILITY. FELONY.
The defendant has been charged with injuring an energy facility. 1
For you to find the defendant guilty of this offense, the State must prove
two things beyond a reasonable doubt:
First, that the defendant [[destroyed] [injured] [otherwise damaged]]
[attempted to [destroy] [injure] [otherwise damage]] an energy facility (or)
[[obstructed] [impeded] [impaired] the [services] [transmissions] of an
energy facility] [attempted to [obstruct] [impede] [impair] the [services]
[transmissions] of an energy facility];
And Second, that the defendant did so knowingly and willfully. Willfully
means intentionally and without justification or excuse.
If you find from the evidence beyond a reasonable doubt that on or
about the alleged date, the defendant knowingly and willfully [[destroyed]
[injured] [otherwise damaged]] [attempted to [destroy] [injure] [otherwise
damage]] an energy facility (or) [[obstructed] [impeded] [impaired] the
[services] [transmissions] of an energy facility] [attempted to [obstruct]
[impede] [impair] the [services] [transmissions] of an energy facility], 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.
