CRIMINAL APPEAL
Defendant:
Paul Wiggam [baileylister]
I. Statement of Claim
Mr. Wiggam is currently facing 12 counts of attempted murder on a protected person in connection with a bank robbery that transpired on October 16th, 2023. We firmly contend that these charges are unduly harsh and unjust, as they do not align with the legal definition of attempted murder, specifically with regards to the requirement of premeditation. Moreover, we assert that the correct charges should be Aggravated Assault and Battery due to the lack of evidence for premeditation.
The core issue in this case revolves around the definition of attempted murder, which mandates that it involves an attempt to perform a premeditated killing of another person with malice. Premeditation, as defined by law, necessitates careful planning or thinking out an action, especially a criminal one, beforehand. It is our contention that there exists a lack of evidence to substantiate the claim of premeditation in Mr. Wiggam's case.
Our grounds for appeal are as follows:
1. Absence of Premeditation:
The prosecution has failed to provide concrete evidence indicating that Mr. Wiggam premeditated the alleged crimes. There is a distinct lack of documented plans, preparations, or other substantial proof that would support the crucial element of premeditation required for a charge of attempted murder.
2. The Nature of the Robbery:
The incident in question, a bank robbery, is characterized by its inherent impulsivity. Bank robberies are typically fast-paced events that do not allow for careful planning or forethought. The absence of any convincing evidence of premeditation directly contradicts the requirement as defined by the law.
3. Failure to Meet the Burden of Proof:
The prosecution has not satisfied its burden of proving, beyond a reasonable doubt, that Mr. Wiggam attempted to premeditatedly kill another person with malice. Without this, the charges of attempted murder lack a sound legal foundation.
4. Appropriate Charges:
In light of the evidence presented, we argue that the correct charges for the injuries sustained by the law enforcement officers during the bank robbery should be Aggravated Assault and Battery. These charges more accurately reflect the circumstances and the level of intent involved in the alleged crimes.
We contend that the charges against Mr. Wiggam are unjust, and justice demands a meticulous and impartial examination of the evidence presented. In this case, the evidence falls short of substantiating the charges, particularly the requirement of premeditation, and thus, these charges should be reconsidered.
In consideration of the above, we respectfully request the court to undertake a comprehensive review of this appeal. We implore the court to recognize the absence of evidence supporting premeditation and to consider the more appropriate charges of Aggravated Assault and Battery for the injuries sustained by the law enforcement officers. A just legal system is one that operates in accordance with the principles of fairness, truth, and the presumption of innocence.
It is our hope that the justice system, built on principles of fairness, truth, and the presumption of innocence, will rectify this unjust situation by conducting a comprehensive review of the evidence. In light of the absence of premeditation, we urge the court to reconsider the charges against Mr. Wiggam.
