Summary

TLDRThis video from Mr. Criminology explains the three stages of felony execution: consummated, frustrated, and attempted. The consummated stage occurs when all elements of the crime are completed. The frustrated stage happens when the crime is fully executed, but the intended result (e.g., death) does not occur due to factors beyond the offender's control. Lastly, the attempted stage involves an incomplete crime, where the offender begins the crime but does not complete all the necessary acts due to external causes. Examples are provided for better understanding.

Takeaways

  • 🔍 The video discusses the three stages of execution of felonies: consummated, frustrated, and attempted.
  • ✅ Consummated stage: All elements of the crime are present, and the crime is fully committed.
  • 💡 Example of a consummated crime: In theft, if all elements such as taking someone else's property without permission and with intent to own it are fulfilled, the crime is consummated.
  • ❗ Frustrated stage: The offender has completed all necessary acts for committing the crime, but the intended outcome does not occur due to a cause independent of the offender's will.
  • 🩹 Example of a frustrated crime: A person attempts to kill someone but the victim survives due to timely medical intervention.
  • ⚠️ Attempted stage: The offender starts committing the crime but fails to complete all the necessary actions, often due to external causes or accidents.
  • 🔧 Example of an attempted crime: A person tries to break into a house by damaging the window grills but is caught before entering and stealing anything.
  • 🤔 If the offender voluntarily decides to stop before completing the crime, they are not liable for attempted felony.
  • 💼 Even if the crime is only attempted, damages can still be claimed for any harm caused, like breaking the grills.
