NEW FACT PATTERN (Next 2 questiоns)Kris mаrried Rоchelle. Shоrtly аfter they аwoke one morning, Rochelle berated Kris about spending too much of his paycheck on alcohol and gambling. Kris lost his temper and slapped Rochelle several times. He then went off to work. After work, Kris visited a local tavern, had a few drinks, and then took a bus to the local dog racing track. He owed Frank “the Tank” Dello, a local loan shark, $800 which was overdue. Kris had hoped to win enough money at the track to pay off the debt to Frank. After the first four races, however, Kris had lost all the money he had taken with him, except for enough to pay for the bus ride home. When Kris got off the bus, Anthony, Frank the Tank’s enforcer, was waiting for him. Kris told Anthony: “I just lost all my cash at the dog track, but I’ve got $500 in the sugar bowl at my house. It’s only a block away.” Anthony replied, “Okay, but this better not be a trick, or else you’ll be a dead man.” Kris walked quickly to his house while Anthony followed in his car. Kris climbed the porch steps as Anthony waited in the car. Kris pounded on the door. Rochelle, however, still angry about having been slapped by Kris that morning, refused to let Kris in the house. Kris became more and more desperate and told her, “Look, there’s someone in that car who is going to shoot me if I don’t give him the money in the sugar bowl. If you don’t want to open the door, fine; just slip the money through the mail slot so I can pay this guy. Or else call the police before I get killed!” Through the window, Rochelle saw Anthony in the car and, knowing about her husband’s debts, assumed that he was telling the truth. Nevertheless, she told Kris, “You can go to hell for all I care.” She then pulled the shade down and closed the curtains. Kris kept yelling, “Please, please . . . let me in or I’ll be killed!” Rochelle continued to ignore his pleas. Kris, in desperation, took off and ran down the street. Anthony, however, pursued Kris in his car and eventually drove the car onto the sidewalk. He ran over Kris, killing him instantly. If Anthony were caught and tried for killing Kris in a Model Penal Code jurisdiction, the most appropriate outcome of his trial would be:
