Question

Paul returned home early from a business trip and discovered his wife, Susan, in bed with Larry, his law partner. Paul went into a rage. He grabbed a knife and stabbed Larry to death. He then went into the kitchen and got a beer. As he watched a football game on television and drank beer, he became even more enraged. At half-time he went down to the local gun store and purchased a 38 caliber revolver. He then went home and, after the game, shot and killed Susan who was hiding under the bed. Paul watched the rest of the game then went to bed what crimes is he guilty of and why?

Answer 1

Answer:

In both cases, Paul commits a wrongful death, which the intention of taking the life of both exists

Explanation:

Paul's conviction depends on the degree of alcohol or blood drugs (if it contained it), the country where he lives and the laws that determine that conviction, and also the number of stabbings given and bullets used, the more damage suffered in the victim, it is considered that less was an act of anger and more the desire to murder the person, therefore greater guilt.
