Abstrakt: The article focuses on examining the relationship between justified true beliefs (JTB), the Gettier problem, and criminal knowledge within the Model Penal Code (MPC). It explores how the definition of knowledge in criminal law differs from epistemology. Topics include the historical development of the JTB model, the challenges posed by Gettier cases, and the mismatch between MPC's definition of knowledge and the commonsensical understanding of the term.
