Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A. Legal impossibility occurs when a person believes they are conspiring to commit a crime, but the crime is not actually possible or illegal. This defense can absolve a person of liability for conspiracy.
B. Renunciation occurs when a conspirator withdraws from the conspiracy and takes action to prevent the commission of the crime. This defense can also be used to avoid liability for conspiracy.
C. If all other members of the conspiracy have been acquitted, it may be difficult for the prosecution to prove that the defendant participated in a conspiracy. However, this does not necessarily absolve the defendant of liability for conspiracy. 
Therefore, all of the options listed can be defenses to a criminal conspiracy charge depending on the factual circumstances of the case.
