According to NY legal code, it is not murder if:
The defendant acted under the influence of extreme emotional disturbance for which there was a reasonable explanation or excuse, the reasonableness of which is to be determined from the viewpoint of a person in the defendant’s situation under the circumstances as the defendant believed them to be.
On the colloquial sense, sure, but it’s entirely possible (and would be hilarious) for the legal definition not to agree
How so? (sincere question)
edit: I misread and thought it was claiming a specific legal possibility
Yes so is capital punishment, wars and just like those this is also justified. He was judged by millions of his victims and his peers and executed.
I mean it was murder. Premeditated, planned etc.
But he murdered the right person :)
