But that’s just it. How do you prove or disprove intent?

We had an incident here just a couple of days ago.
A 15 year old boy went hunting with his dad and his uncle.
Uncle heard a rustle in the bushes and shot his nephew in the back and killed him. It was most likely unintentional.
Should he be punished? I think so.

not according to a few folks in here. Funny you mentioned that because we just had a young man accidentally kill a Ferrum College student. At least he did come to their aid instead of RUN as he could have. This guy has a 3 month old newborn and is being charged with manslaughter. I find it ironic if he had “no intent” that according to some of these nuts in here...he should be allowed to go free based on how terrible he feels. (which he does by the way....)
