Multistate Bar Examination Practice Question

Jane is a firefighter who arrives at the scene of a house fire. She notices a child trapped inside but becomes distracted by other tasks and does not attempt a rescue. Tragically, the child dies from smoke inhalation. Under the principles of acts and omissions in criminal law, Jane could potentially be charged with:

  • Voluntary manslaughter due to emotional distress

  • Strict liability since firefighters are always responsible in emergencies

  • Criminal negligence due to her duty as a firefighter

  • No liability because there was no direct act causing harm
