aforethought

Read a random definition: legal systems

A quick definition of aforethought:

Aforethought: When someone plans to do something bad in advance, it is called aforethought. This word is often used in the context of murder, where it means that the person who committed the crime had thought about it beforehand. A person can have aforethought if they intended to kill someone, hurt them badly, or didn't care about the value of human life. It is important to note that not all intentional killings are considered aforethought, as there may be circumstances that justify or excuse the action.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Aforethought means that something was planned or thought about in advance. It can refer to something that was done on purpose or with intention. For example, if someone plans to rob a bank and thinks about it beforehand, that would be considered an act of aforethought. Another example would be if someone intentionally harms another person, that would also be an act of aforethought. Examples: - The defendant was found guilty of murder with malice aforethought because he had planned the killing in advance. - The prosecutor argued that the defendant's actions were not accidental, but rather were done with aforethought and intent to harm the victim. These examples illustrate how aforethought refers to actions that were planned or thought about in advance, rather than being accidental or spontaneous.
