“1. The court shall not instruct the jury to consider, nor shall the court as factfinder consider, a lesser included offense, as defined in subsection 2, unless on the basis of the evidence there is a rational basis for finding the defendant guilty of that lesser included offense. If a rational basis exists, the lesser included offense shall be considered by the factfinder if requested by either the State or defendant; otherwise, its consideration shall be a matter within the discretion of the court. 2. For purposes of this section, a lesser included offense is an offense carrying a lesser penalty which: A. As legally defined, must necessarily be committed when the offense or alternative thereof actually charged, as legally defined, is committed.”
