In a prosecution for Criminal Attempt, it is an affirmative defense, under circumstances manifesting a voluntary and complete renunciation of any criminal intent, that the Defendant avoided the commission of the crime by abandoning the criminal effort and, if mere abandonment is insufficient to accomplish the avoidance, by taking further and affirmative steps that prevented the commission of the crime.

A renunciation is not "voluntary and complete" if it is motivated in whole or in part by 1) a belief that a circumstance exists that increases the probability of detection or apprehension of the Defendant or another participant in the criminal operation, or which makes more difficult the consummation of the crime, or 2) a decision to postpone the criminal conduct until another time or to substitute another victim or another but similar objective.
