What the majority and dissent disagree about in this opinion is whether, on that same theory, you can also be found guilty of kidnapping, on the theory that spiking their drink and getting them drunk means they also couldn't consent to being "moved" to your vehicle.Justice O'Leary writes the majority opinion and says "No, they're two different crimes; for kidnapping, you need some level of force, not just deception.
