Criminal Law-Intent Crimes

Sunday night at BOB stadium: After the humiliating loss to the Houston Astros, New York Yankee Aaron Judge goes to the Astros clubhouse to congratulate the winners.

Aaron brings

along his favorite and irreplaceable bat "#60.

AS he

walks into the clubhouse swinging the bat he thinks to himself, "If I had been swinging the bat like this during the playoffs we wouldn't have lost."

He hits Astros pitcher Justin Verlander as Verlander turned

to leave the clubhouse.

Verlander falls as the Astros

shout "murderous loser" at Judge. Verlander dies.

The

police are called and Judge is arrested and charged with murder. Will this be a successful criminal prosecution.
