Necessity creates privilege.
Under this maxim, the common law excuses the commission of an act prima facie criminal if such act be done involuntarily, and under circumstances which show that the individual doing it was not really a free agent. Thus, if A by force take the hand of B, in which is a weapon, and therewith kill C, A is guilty of murder, but B is excused. Moral force, however, such as a threat of imprisonment will not excuse him. State v Dowell, 106 NC 722, 11 SE 525.
