The statement that "Recklessness is defined as a conscious indifference to a known and substantial risk of harm created by one's behavior" is True.

Recklessness, in legal terms, typically refers to a state of mind in which an individual is aware of a substantial and unjustifiable risk that their actions could cause harm but chooses to disregard that risk. This definition encapsulates the idea that the individual consciously acknowledges the potential consequences of their actions yet proceeds without regard for the safety and well-being of others, leading to a higher threshold of culpability compared to mere negligence. Thus, the correct response to the statement is indeed true.
