One beautiful morning, Jake and Sally set out to burglarize a jewelry store. The plan was to take as much jewelry as possible – no one was supposed to get hurt. The first store they went to burglarize was closed,

so Jake and Sally abandoned their criminal plan and went for breakfast. As they were shopping for napkins later that day at Super Discount, Sally looked at the diamonds in the jewelry case and motioned to Jake. "Get a load of these," she said and gave a wink and nod to Jake as she patted her concealed weapon. Jake took out his pistol and ordered the clerk to step aside as Jake collected all the diamonds and put them in a bag. The Discount Greeter, the one who says, "Hi and Welcome" when customers enter the store, happened to be a 78-year-old ex-cop, rushed to the jewelry clerk's aid. Just as police arrived, Jake grabbed the Greeter and took him hostage in a desperate act of escape. Jake, the Greeter and Sally got to their car and led police on a high speed chase for many miles which resulted in the Greeter being accidentally killed by police gunfire. What crimes have Jake and Sally committed? Discuss whether the prosecution can prove all of the elements of the charges and any defenses Jake and Sally may have. What will be an ideal response?
