Assume a valid regulatory prohibition is properly classified as malum prohibitum, requires voluntary performance of a specified act but no purpose to cause harm, and has no applicable exception. The accused deliberately performs that act; all elements are proved. The only defense is that the accused wished no harm. Which analysis reflects Bayona’s distinction?

Choose the Best Answer

Absence of an evil purpose does not necessarily excuse the proved voluntary prohibited act where such purpose is not an element. Criminal intent and intent to perform an act are legally identical. A harmless purpose always creates an exemption. The accused must be convicted even if the act was never performed.
