The provided text outlines key principles of criminal responsibility found within the Texas Penal Code, specifically focusing on culpability generally in Chapter 6. Section 6.01 establishes that an offense requires a voluntary act or omission, clarifying what constitutes voluntary possession and when an omission can be an offense. Section 6.02 mandates a culpable mental state—such as intentionally, knowingly, recklessly, or with criminal negligence—for committing an offense, even if the law does not explicitly list one. These culpable mental states are defined in detail in Section 6.03, ranking them from intentional down to criminal negligence based on the actor's awareness and disregard of risk. Finally, Section 6.04 addresses causation, stipulating that a person is criminally responsible if the result would not have happened but for their conduct, even if the actual outcome differed slightly from the intended or risked result.
