PART 2:
What was the relationship between the victim and accused? Did they know each other (or not – was it a random act)?
Also, was it classified as first degree, second degree, manslaughter or infanticide? Explain why it was classified that way by referring to the appropriate section (and subsection where needed) in the C.C.
