105.30 – Conspiracy; no defense

§ 105.30 Conspiracy; no defense.

It is no defense to a prosecution for conspiracy that, owing to
criminal irresponsibility or other legal incapacity or exemption, or to
unawareness of the criminal nature of the agreement or the object
conduct or of the defendant’s criminal purpose or to other factors
precluding the mental state required for the commission of conspiracy or
the object crime, one or more of the defendant’s co-conspirators could
not be guilty of conspiracy or the object crime.
