Practice question
A person freely abandons further necessary execution acts from remorse before the intended felony is complete, with no external obstacle forcing the decision. What follows concerning the attempt qualification?
- Remorse automatically proves all acts were completed
- An attempt always exists despite the statutory qualification
- Only police may allow abandonment
- The free desistance must be considered under Article6; any separate completed offense remains a distinct question
- The decision necessarily erases all evidence
Legal references
- Revised Penal Code Article6; Peñaranda GR214426: https://lawphil.net/judjuris/juri2021/dec2021/gr_214426_2021.html
