Holdings:
The
Virginia Court made the following holding:
- It is elementary that
the burden is on the Commonwealth of Virginia to prove every essential
element of an offense beyond a reasonable doubt. The evidence must exclude
every reasonable hypothesis of innocence and be consistent only with the
guilt of an accused. The fact finder, however, is entitled to draw
inferences from proved facts, so long as the inferences are reasonable and
justified. When facts are equally susceptible to more than one
interpretation, one of which is consistent with the innocence of the
accused, the trier of fact cannot arbitrarily adopt an inculpatory
interpretation. However, the Commonwealth need only exclude reasonable
hypotheses of innocence that flow from the evidence, not those that spring
from the imagination of the defendant. The statement that circumstantial
evidence must exclude every reasonable theory of innocence is simply
another way of stating that the Commonwealth has the burden of proof
beyond a reasonable doubt.
- There is no mens rea
requirement in Va. Code Ann. § 18.2-266. As long as the Commonwealth of
Virginia proves beyond a reasonable doubt that an intoxicated individual
operated his vehicle, regardless of intent, he is guilty of driving while
under the influence.
