USLegal:
- Depravity of Mind Law and Legal Definition:


Depravity of mind refers to the state of mind which is contrary to justice,
honesty or morality. Depravity of mind is a condition where there
is a deviation or departure from the ordinary standards of honest,
good morals, justice, or ethics as to be shocking to the moral sense
of the society. Depravity of mind can also be described as an act of baseness,
vileness, or depravity in the private and social duties which a person
owes to another, or to a community.



That tells us nothing. We need the Minnesota jury instruction. Anyone have it?



Do you have the completed Coroner’s report.

“Intent “ has everything to do with how a death is charged.

I shot towards you but I didn’t intend to harm or kill you.

The gun was loaded, I didn’t tell you and you shot yourself.

We can do this ad nauseum and that’s already been done here.


There is no "intent to kill" requirement under the Minnesota statute. Whether or not he intended to kill is irrelevant.



Making it all irrelevant so drop the charges.


No. You can be found guilty of Murder 3 in Minnesota without having an intent to kill.
