"I have to come up with a theoretical scenario about a suspect and discuss competency, capacity, and mitigating factors. If someone went into someone&#039;s home without permission and stole a bike, would this be a crime that could be brought to court in front of a jury? I know you don&#039;t have all the information about the case since this isn&#039;t real and is just theoretical, but theoretically speaking, would this be a situation that the owner of the house could press criminal charges for? If the defendant were autistic and it was considered petty larceny, would the person still go to court and would their competency and capacity to commit the crime be considered? I just want to know if this would be a good example of a scenario that I could use to discuss competency, capacity, and any mitigating factors or not. Thank you"
