Crimes involving moral turpitude
historically have been defined as
those which are mala in se, as
opposed to crimes which are mala
prohibita. W. LaFave & A. Scott,
Criminal Law § 6, at 31 (1972). In
other statutory contexts, the Court of
Criminal Appeals has classed as
crimes involving moral turpitude
most offenses constituting a felony,
as well as offenses such as petty
larceny, Price v. State, 546 P.2d 632
(Okl. Cr. 1976), and illegal possession
of stimulants, Ruhm v. State, 496 P.2d
809 (Okl. Cr. 1972).
