Question juridique clé
Whether the conduct amounted to attempted serious bodily injury by conditional intent
Solution extraite
Yes. The court held that attempted serious bodily injury can be committed with conditional intent and that the canton properly found the defendant accepted the risk of grave injury.
Motifs extraits
The attack to the victim's head with a baseball bat created a concrete and obvious risk of grave injury; the canton relied on the manner of acting, the nature of the weapon, and the post-offense behavior. Conditional intent is equivalent to direct intent for attempt.
