If D tries to kill himself but ends up killing V, can D be liable for murder under transferred malice, or will a charge of manslaughter suffice?

Brief background about the case:
I bought a car back on June, the day following the purshase I found out the car has a lienholder. The seller promised to pay off the loan or return my money. the seller stopped anwering my phone calls and he did not do anything. I contacted the police and filled a police report. Last week I got a phone call from the detective's office that the district attorney`s office accepted the follow up of the case and most probably the judgy going to order a restitution. I m not sure how that works,,If I am going to get my money back,,,what about if the defendant has no money,,,should I fill a case with the court....I have no idea what is the next step...please clarify if it`s possible...thanks in advance

i reckon that if these thugs could be sent to a zero-tolerance academy, they would be fit to go back to society. maybe don't allow them to use weapons, but everything else the same.

to conduct the search and did not call the police to conduct the search.

One could argue that it is the responsibilty of the principal to provide and orderly and safe envoirnment. Although students have a right to privacy this expectation can be diminished in certain cirumstances. If the teacher has reasonable beliefs that drugs may be found on a student it is not in the schools best interest to request a warrant beforehand.

On the other hand, it is argued that if the search was conducted by police it would of been unreasonable because they did not have a warrant, therefore the evidence should be excluded. The court should decided whether they search should be conducted not a teacher since they are not fully versed with the practices of law and cannot insure and objective search. Schools have a duty to foster consititutional rights, and there is no compelling evidence that schools require a lower standard.

If a person was convicted because of this should an appeal be allowed?

The government has directed the police to enforce what used to be considered very minor infringments of the law.

By criminalising whole swathes of the population, are they trying to generate evidence for bringing in even more draconian legislation to grind us under their jack boots?

Let me just start off by saying my mom and sister are the worst pieces of crap ever. My mom has an alcohol blower on her car b/c of her extreme DUI and my sister is 18 and already has a suspended license from many car accidents. Well my sister was driving around my mom, because my mom was drunk and she got into a car accident. The car had no insurance on it. When the cops came, they said that my sister was me. I am a responsible driver with nothing on my license and car insurance and my own car. (I don't associate with these losers.) I live in AZ and I just found this out because they were trying to bribe me, telling me if I go along with it, they will give me money. How do I report this? Do I just call the non emergency police number or what? Anyone have advice?

There are videos of police brutality taking place and nothing is done about it.Why?? They should be punished as well. It is ok to abuse a person that committed a crime nobody cares but when an officer gets shot then it's OMG a big stink!! Why is that? a person speeds and gets a ticket. Who tickets an officer when they speed?? Everyone has to obey the law, but why do the police break the law everyday and nothing gets done about it. then you have the commissioner covering them up???

6-25 inNYC, a 93 year old woman drove into and totaled my parked car. I had just gotten into it. The door was not fully closed when she struck the edge of the nearly closed door, totalling my car.

I called ther NYC police. There were no witnesses to this accident on a residential street However, the 93 year old lied to the cops in private and told them I opened the door. I was in fact, closing the door to drive to a doctor's appointment some 40 minutes later. I am also a senior citizen.

The police report came out stating the " As car door open, driver ( The old lady) hit the parked car. Her insurance compnay refuses to pay a cent, So I am in small claims court in 2 weeks.

I wrote and filed a civilian accident report correcting the police report, but cops refuse to change anything,. The cop who wrote the report was in the police car the entire time. It was the other cops who interviewed me some 20 feet away.

How to deal with this all in court.

An 'artistic' photo from elton johns collection was seized from a display at the baltic gallary in Gateshead.

It showed a very young girl in an explicit pose.

After a month, it seems the police are unable to say whether it is illegal or not - if the authorities can't tell, then how is anyone else supposed to?

(FWIW: I think it is clearly objectionable - a child so young cannot have given meaningful consent to have such a photo taken and published globally - and everyone involved should be punished to the fullest extent of the law)

Many people do not seem to pay Police any respect. They are the face of a country's law (UK in my case) and as such get abused, ignored and even physically attacked...by criminals? Yes, but not all the time. Sometimes just average citizens who seem to think it wise to withhold information or hinder the progress of the 'Fuzz'.

Does anyone else find this sad? I mean my local bobby is pushing sixty, I would have thought, and deals with a whole world of **** each and every day, and he always manages a smile and stops to talk to an old lady at the bottom of our road. Ten minutes later he might be getting kicked senseless by a gang of teenage hoodlums.

He deserves so much credit but many people just see him as the face of the establishment and so give no help. It's the shadowy corridors of power above him that are the problem, not the men and the women on the streets!

Anyone else agree?

Just curious... if a cop were to pull you over, for example, and you knew you were getting a ticket so you said 'screw you, a**hole', is that legal? I mean, it should be with freedom of speech and all. I'm not looking for answers from the moral police, just people who know the actual law. And no, I did not get pulled over or anything. This is purely hypothetical. Thanks in advance for the answers =)

What did you do? Or would you do? The guy could be campable of this so the police or no option. When the person said this to me he was on a lot of meth and was talking in "code". I am so confussed and pretty scared.

Ps. He has been kinda a family friend for about 10 years. I'm 21 he is 30. It's really complicated. Going to family is not an option. Basically they are all kida crazy. Most got invoved in th "small town drug abuse" It' bad!

I live in rural Iowa, and some old "friends" of my brother have burglarized our property recently, on multiple occasions (i've seen the hard evidence it was them, with two burglary cases pending).

I have since installed motion-activated camera recording systems, floodlights, and began keeping a much closer watch for signs of people nearby (we are isolated in the country by woods). I have several types of firearms which, being rural, i can carry around and fire as i please in my back yard with no restrictions.

Question:

If i found there were people i did not know that had broken into my garage (again) what can i legally do? Can i confront them at gunpoint and if they attempt to flee (towards me, being in the only door) fire upon them in self defense? Keep them at gunpoint until police arrive? What about if they're already outside the garage and attempt to attack or flee? What about non-lethal rounds?

I intend to know the laws so that i can confidently defend my property LEGALLY.
