On Untypical Direct Intents--The problems of criminal law with reference to two vicious traffic accidents in Changchun and Zhengzhou

It is difficult to decide intents (purposely committed crimes) in the practice of justice. This article, based on the facts of the two vicious traffic accidents in Changchun and Zhengzhou, analyzes the untypical case of direct intents, which can be termed as the untypical direct intent. The untypical direct intent is a kind of direct intent, a borderline case between the typical direct intent and the indirect intent. It is mainly represented by the passive direct intent or the presumed indirect intent. The key to cognize a purposely committed crime is to differentiate the untypical direct intent from indirect intent on that the former contains the factor of passive expect while the latter does not.
