11 Del. C. § 792: Coercion; truth and proper motive as a defense.

In any prosecution for coercion committed by instilling in the victim a fear that the victim or another person would be charged with a crime, it is a defense that the defendant believed the threatened charge to be true and that the defendant’s sole purpose was to compel or induce the victim to take reasonable action to make good the wrong which was the subject of the threatened charge.
