I really admire the fancy names and titles they have for everything here. For me it´s a plain murder, but that would probably be to simplistic to these overlords of phrases.

I believe the difference is primarily intent: murder requires the intent to kill whereas assault eventuating death implies that death was an unintended consequence of the assault. Of course, hard to imagine that shooting someone twice in the stomach was intended to produce anything other than death. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChipButty Posted June 24, 2019 Share Posted June 24, 2019 The suspects have allegedly told police that they tried to stop Mr Panya from trying to steal property from a tourist.

They may have chatted, and in their mind shooting the victim was a logical thing to do. A lack of education, the understanding of law, small regard for taking of a life, karma stupidity, comic book religion, alcohol, drugs; the combination and possibility of contributing factors are many.

zaZa9 Posted June 25, 2019 Share Posted June 25, 2019 The death penalty , when applied to self admitted , convicted murderers , stops them from committing any further crimes. That seems conducive to law and order to me, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And murder will require an appropriate sentence, these thugs have not surrendered to be locked up for 20 years. They are the do gooders the defenders of tourists, they can go now.
