The Court of Appeal modified the trial court's conviction by reclassifying the attempted murder charge to attempted killing. The lower court had sentenced the defendant to closed youth care for attempted murder and attempted assault, noting the attempted murder charge was inappropriate given the defendant's age. The appellate court determined that the specific nature of the knife wounds, particularly those targeting the neck and arm, warranted a more accurate legal characterization of attempted killing rather than attempted murder.

Chapter 3 § 2 of the Criminal Code; Chapter 3 § 3 of the Criminal Code: The court established that when specific injuries inflicted during an assault target vital areas or cause severe harm, the charge of attempted murder may be inappropriate, and the charge of attempted killing is the correct legal characterization.

Testo completo

Gärningarna: Den 22 september 2001 tilldelade J.S. en person ett knytnävsslag i ansiktet. Därefter utdelade J.S. mot samma person flera knivhugg som träffade skalpen, halsen i höjd med halspulsåderns delning samt ena överarmen (värjningsskada).

Personliga förhållanden: J.S. är född år 1984.

Tingsrätten dömde J.S. för misshandel och försök till mord till sluten ungdomsvård i ett år. - Tingsrätten ansåg att straffvärdet för brotten var fängelse i sex år men fängelsestraffet skulle med hänsyn till J.S:s ålder ha bestämts till ett och ett halvt år. Inget talade mot att påföljden bestämdes till sluten ungdomsvård.

Hovrätten ändrade tingsrättens som endast på så sätt att brottsrubriceringen för knivhuggen ändrades till försök till dråp.
