Dolus Eventualis
"Intent can occur in three forms: dolus directus, dolus indirectus and dolus eventualis.
"Intent in the form of dolus eventualis or legal intention, which is present when the perpetrator objectively foresees the possibility of his act causing death and persists regardless of the consequences, suffices to find someone guilty of murder.
"Dolus directus, on the other hand, known as intention in its
ordinary grammatical sense, is present when the accused’s aim and object
is to bring about the unlawful consequence, even should the chance of
its resulting be small."
