@Seretogis, sorry for the slip. I looked at my typo and thought about it after I posted it but by then it looked correct--nothing intentional.
My point regarding 1st degree murder was directed towards your post, not Lebell's.
@Lebell, you seemed to be suggesting that all murders were the same by stating that "murder is murder" and I replied by saying that not all life taking offenses were murder.
See if this helps or confuses the issues we are discussing:
Fundamentals of Criminal Law
Advanced Topics in the law of homicide: Intention
