| False Imprisonment
If an individual inhibits or prevents another's freedom of movement
without their consent for any amount of time, he or she has falsely
imprisoned that person. This imprisonment may include a physical
element to prevent escape, such as being bound with rope, as well
as verbal threats of harm to the victim. There are several key factors
that contribute to the claim of false imprisonment. First, the confinement
must be non-consensual on the victim's part. Second, the confinement
must be intentional on the part of the perpetrator. Third, the victim
has to have knowledge that he or she is indeed imprisoned. Last,
there can be no available means of escape known to the victim.
