Is depraved indifference a crime for which a defendant is convicted of assault?
"New York", United States of America
The following excerpt is from People v. Wilson, 109 N.E.3d 542, 32 N.Y.3d 1, 84 N.Y.S.3d 393 (N.Y. 2018):
People v. Moloi, 135 A.D.2d 576, 577, 521 N.Y.S.2d 794 [2d Dept. 1987] ). Thus, depraved indifference assault differs from depraved indifference murder insofar as guilt of intent to cause serious physical injury does not necessarily negate guilt of depraved indifference to human life.
