April 30, 1954 | Labrador, J. | Criminal | Stages of Commission - Specific Felonies (Murder)
DOCTRINE:
It is not necessary that the accused actually commit all the acts of execution necessary to produce the death of his victim, but that it
is sufficient that he believes that he has committed all said acts. For the crime of frustrated murder, it must be shown that the
subjective phase of the acts necessary to commit the offense had already passed; and that there was full and complete belief on the
part of the assailant that he had committed all the acts of execution necessary to produce the death of the intended victim.
