Penal (PEN) CHAPTER 40, PART 3, TITLE G, ARTICLE 100
§ 100.15 Criminal solicitation; no defense.

It is no defense to a prosecution for criminal solicitation that the
person solicited could not be guilty of the crime solicited owing to
criminal irresponsibility or other legal incapacity or exemption, or to
unawareness of the criminal nature of the conduct solicited or of the
defendant's criminal purpose or to other factors precluding the mental
state required for the commission of the crime in question.
