Intent can & should not shield anyone from criminal prosecution.
Intent-Negligence and lack of knowledge may be used during sentencing.
Intent was never a shield from prosecution.
Hence: Ignorantia juris non excusat (Ignorance of the law excuses not)
And if a soul sin, and hear the voice of swearing, and is a witness,
whether he hath seen or known of it; if he do not utter it, then he shall
bear his iniquity.
–Leviticus 5:1
