1. Whoever receives, possesses, conceals, stores, barters, sells, or disposes of any motor vehicle or aircraft, which has crossed a State or United States boundary after being stolen, knowing the same to have been stolen, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than 10 years, or both.
2. For purposes of this section, the term "State" includes a State of the United States, the District of Columbia, and any commonwealth, territory, or possession of the United States.

Jury Instruction

1. That the Defendant willfully received, possessed, concealed, stored, sold, or disposed of a stolen motor vehicle, as described in the indictment, with knowledge that the vehicle had been stolen; and
2. That at the time the Defendant did so, the motor vehicle had crossed a State or United States boundary after having been stolen.

The indictment alleges that the Defendant received, possessed, concealed, stored, sold, and disposed of a certain motor vehicle. The law specifies these several different ways in which the offense can be committed, and it is not necessary for the Government to prove that all of such acts were in fact committed. The Government must prove beyond a reasonable doubt that the Defendant either received, possessed, concealed, stored, sold, or disposed of the motor vehicle; but in order to return a verdict of guilt you must agree unanimously upon the way in which the offense was committed.

The word “stolen” includes any wrongful and dishonest taking of a motor vehicle with the intent to deprive the owner of the rights and benefits of ownership.

Also, while it must be proved that the Defendant knew that the vehicle had been stolen, it is not necessary to prove that the Defendant knew that the vehicle had crossed a State or United States boundary after it had been stolen.

The word “State” includes a State of the United States, the District of Columbia, and any commonwealth, territory, or possession of the United States.
