A hiker found an arrowhead on federal park land. A criminal statute prohibited removing artifacts from the park, but the hiker had read a private travel website stating that visitors could keep small finds. The hiker took the arrowhead home and was charged under the statute.
Which statement best describes the hiker's mistake-of-law argument?

Choose the Best Answer

The hiker's mistake of law is treated the same as insanity. The hiker has a complete defense because every good-faith legal misunderstanding excuses criminal conduct. The hiker's mistake of law automatically negates the physical act of taking the arrowhead. The hiker's misunderstanding of the criminal statute is ordinarily no defense because ignorance or mistake of law generally does not excuse the offense.
