Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:
Belva is cheated when she buys a car from Fast Eddie’s Car Mart. She attempts to return the car, but Eddie just laughs and tells her to go away. Every time Belva has to make a repair on the car, she gets angry. Finally, she decides to wreck Eddie’s car to get even with him. Following him home from work one evening, Belva tries to ram his car, hoping to bend the axle or frame. Instead of bending the frame, the collision smashes Eddie’s gas tank, causes an explosion, and kills him.
Is Belva guilty of any degree of homicide?
Answer:
Belva is guilty of first-degree murder.
Explanation:
As we can see in the question above, Belva planned to crash Eddie's car. She premeditated this attack even though she knew it would be dangerous and that it would compromise her and his life. This causes Belva to be indicted for first-degree murder.
This is because, first-degree homicide is one in which the individual plans to attack the other and that attack results in death.
Belva planned to attack Eddie, for this reason, Belva is guilty of first-degree murder.

This lead to the adverse colonial reaction to this Act caused the boycott of British goods. This was also associated with the riots and attack of colonists over the tax collectors.
