N.C.P.I.—Crim. 237.40
UNLICENSED OPERATION OF A BEACH BINGO GAME. MISDEMEANOR.
For you to find the defendant guilty of this offense, the State must
prove three things beyond a reasonable doubt:
First, that on or about the alleged date, the defendant operated a
beach bingo game1 within the state of North Carolina.
Second, that defendant did not first obtain a license to operate a
beach bingo game from the State Bureau of Investigation2.
And Third, that the defendant did so knowingly.
If you find from the evidence beyond a reasonable doubt that on or
about the alleged date, that the defendant knowingly operated a beach
bingo game within the state of North Carolina without first obtaining a
license from the State Bureau of Investigation, then 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.
