This leaves the question: What is "innocent"? If someone stole a loaf of bread, went to jail and upon their release I killed him, did I murder him? He isn't exactly innocent, but I did intentionally kill him.

The thief is not innocent in the general sense, but in his particular relation to you, he is. If you killed him you would be guilty of murder.

Cordially,
