Abstract
In this post, I argue that the criminal law decision rules relevant to making personal blaming judgments should ordinarily be applied by reference to the facts as perceived by the defendant. Further, I reject the proposition that there is automatic implicit normative guidance requiring persons who claim a rationale-based defence to have taken special care to meet objective standards of reasonableness when ascertaining the facts.
