Has GARDNER committed an offence of sexual activity with a person with a mental disorder (contrary to s. * of the Sexual Offences Act *)? A No, GARDNER did not know about VENNING’s mental disorder. B Yes, and because VENNING was given alcohol by GARDNER, the presumptions under s. * of the Act will be applicable. C No, as the sexual act did not involve penetration of VENNING’s vagina or anus. D Yes, but permission to prosecute the offence will be required from the Director of Public Prosecutions.
Case Rating: *
GARDNER may have committed an offence under s. * of the Sexual Offences Act *, as it involves sexual activity with a person with a mental disorder. However, there are nuances to consider:
- GARDNER's lack of knowledge about VENNING's mental disorder could be relevant.
- The act of oral sex qualifies as sexual activity.
- Permission from the Director of Public Prosecutions might be required to prosecute.

Which of the following statements is correct in relation to the knife that Constable BRADY found? A - The knife could be an offensive weapon or a bladed article depending on CLOUGH’s intention. B - The knife could be an offensive weapon depending on CLOUGH’s intentions, or a bladed article regardless of his intention. C - The knife would be an offensive weapon or a bladed article regardless of CLOUGH’s intention. D - The knife could be an offensive weapon depending on CLOUGH’s intention but it may not be a bladed article if the length of the blade is under *.* inches.
Case Rating: *
The correct statement is:
B - The knife could be an offensive weapon depending on CLOUGH’s intentions, or a bladed article regardless of his intention.

GILPIN is a keen golfer and has entered a competition he believes he can win if he uses a high quality set of golf clubs. EGAN (GILPIN’s friend) believes the same and approaches CORK (who works as a shop assistant in a golf shop) and asks if he can hire a set of clubs from the shop for GILPIN to use. CORK refuses. EGAN then tells CORK that he will tell CORK’s employers that he has been stealing from the till if he does not allow him to use the clubs for free. CORK gives EGAN the clubs and after GILPIN wins the competition, EGAN returns them to CORK.

Blackmail involves:
