Solicitation - Giving Information To Someone With the Intent of Influencing Them to Commit a Crime is Solicitation
When defendant tried to give information to a biker gang that one of their former enforcers was a snitch in his case, he committed Solicitation because defendant's intent was to cause the biker gang to murder the snitch. Defendant took a substantial step toward encouraging another to commit murder and therefore is criminally culpable for solicitation to murder. The fact that defendant went through an intermediary, and thus there was neither actual contact nor an agreement between any of the parties, is relevant but not decisive. Affirmed. State v. Everett, 355 Or 670 (2014).
