                              CRIMINAL PROCEDURE
                                  CHAPTER 3
                              LOCAL JURISDICTION
                              OF PUBLIC OFFENSES
    19-301.  ALL OFFENDERS LIABLE TO PUNISHMENT. (1) Jurisdiction - venue.
Every person is liable to punishment by the laws of this state, for a public
offense committed by him therein, except where it is by law cognizable
exclusively in the courts of the United States. Evidence that a prosecutable
act was committed within the state of Idaho is a jurisdictional requisite, and
proof of such must be shown beyond a reasonable doubt.
    (2)  Venue is nonjurisdictional. Proof that venue is proper under this
chapter is satisfied if shown by a preponderance of the evidence.
