It is learned that the perpetrator of this homicide is being prosecuted in the United States for negligent homicide.
Yes, by negligence…
What would happen in Switzerland?
Negligent homicide involves the fault (negligence) of the perpetrator that leads to the death of a third party. The author is thus not guilty of the death as such, but of the violation of a rule of prudence that led to the death. The author does not want death (1) and does not accept it (2). He is “only” violating a rule of prudence.
- The author does not want death: you are on the ground and I lean with all my weight on your neck with my knee for 526 seconds, 525, 524, 523, 522, 521, 520, 519, 518, 517, 516, 515, 514, 513, 512, 511, 510, 509, 508, 507, 506, 505, 504, 503, 502, 501, 500, 499, 498, 497, 496, 495, 494, 493, 492, 491, 490, 489, 488, 487 seconds…
- The author does not accept death: you tell me you can’t breathe, you ask for help, I (police officer) hold my knee on your neck for another 486 seconds, 485, 484, 483, 482, 481, 480, 479, 478, 477, 476, 475, 474, 473, 472, 471, 470, 469, 468, 467, 466, 465, 464, 463, 462, 461, 460, 459, 458, 457, 456, 455, 454, 453, 452, 451, 450, 449, 448, 447 seconds…

Murder is the crime of intentionally causing the death of a person. But the possible fraud is already sufficient to retain a guilty intention. The possible fraud is when the author does not want the result (in this case death), but nevertheless envisages that this result could occur…
