The criminal offence of attempted murder will be committed even though the actual murder (killing) did not occur and the defendant thus failed to complete the crime. Elements of attempted murder include: 1) A deliberate or reckless behaviour with disregard for human life. 2) The intention to actually kill someone. 3) Substantial evidence pointing in the direction that considerable steps were taken to commit murder.

Murder falls part of a larger scope of criminal offences. Specifically, homicide relates to intentional killings, such as murder, and non-intentional killings, such as manslaughter. Within murder, two degrees are evident: First-degree murder & second-degree murder. With manslaughter, two degrees occur: Voluntary manslaughter & involuntary manslaughter.
