  United States v. Cohen
Cohen argues that he lacked the requisite mens rea because (1) he did not "knowingly" transmit bets, and (2) he did not transmit information assisting in the placing of bets or wagers to or from a jurisdiction in which he "knew" betting was illegal.
Cohen argues that as a result, the district court failed to instruct the jury that before convicting Cohen for aiding and abetting his subordinates' conduct, it must find that those subordinates were themselves guilty of crimes.
Cohen states that the witness' testimony was material to two issues at his trial: (1) whether Cohen had a corrupt motive; and (2) whether Cohen believed that he was transmitting mere information assisting in the placing of bets rather than any bets themselves.

 Jay Cohen's petition for a writ of certiorari.   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-23)
Cohen was ultimately indicted in the Southern District of New York and charged with (1) one count of violating 18 U.S.C. § 371, the general conspiracy statute, by conspiring to violate 18 U.S.C. § 1084 and (2) seven substantive counts of violating and aiding and abetting violations of § 1084.
Cohen “d[id] the deeds and kn[ew] that he was doing the deeds,” then he was guilty “regardless of whether he considered that he was setting his business up in a way to avoid that, or regardless of whether he had an impression from some source or another that he wasn’t violating the law.” A.878-83.
Cohen argued at trial and on appeal that congressional intent and bedrock principles of criminal law required the government to prove that he knew the transmissions involved the former, and not the latter.

 FOR THE SECOND CIRCUIT
Cohen testified in his own defense, and took the opportunity to advance the very defense that the District Court had ruled invalid: that he acted in the belief that his conduct was lawful.
Cohen does not dispute that Section 1084(a) prescribes a general intent crime; and, hence, that knowledge of the law is not an element of a substantive violation of the statute.
According to Cohen, unless the objectives of a conspiracy are crimes that are "wrong in themselves" (mala in se), the Government is required to prove an extra element: that the defendant acted with a "corrupt" or "evil" motive, which would at least require the defendant’s knowledge of the law and specific intent to violate it.

Cohen: I felt there was a clear need for doctors and patients to be given more information on lower dose alternatives for many of our most prescribed drugs.
Cohen: Yes, drug companies have traditionally seen the doctor as the major customer but in our new age of consumer involvement the consumer must also be given what they want.
Cohen: That is a possibility, but at least give the physicians the information to make a rationale choice between a lower dose and starting dose.

 Jay Cohen Comments on Net Gambling Law
JOHN'S, Antigua -- Jay Cohen, one of the founders of the World Sports Exchange (www.wsex.com), is infuriated about the Internet Gambling Funding Prohibition Act, which unanimously passed the House 7-0 last week.
What Cohen is referring to is the Internet Gambling Funding Prohibition Act (H.R. 556), a bill aimed at companies that accept payments through credit cards, electronic fund transfers or "any other form of financial transaction" to prohibit the use of unlawful online betting.
On Tuesday, October 1, 2002, when congress voted on H.R. 556, the co-sponsors knew they had a fragile bill, which may easily have been struck down with a full House, so they opted to have a limited afternoon debate instead of waiting for the evening call.
