increased outrageousness/increased enormity Explanation: http://www.nolo.com/definition.cfm/Term/8FFF20CD-4C08-4037-B... "aggravating circumstances: Circumstances that increase the seriousness or outrageousness of a given crime, and that in turn increase the wrongdoer's penalty or punishment. For example, the crime of aggravated assault is a physical attack made worse because it is committed with a dangerous weapon, results in severe bodily injury or is made in conjunction with another serious crime" -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 4 hrs (2008-07-12 12:18:19 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- http://encyclopedia.thefreedictionary.com/Aggravating circum... "Aggravation is a concept in law, which Black's Law Dictionary defines as: "Any circumstance attending the commission of a crime or tort which increases its guilt or enormity or adds to its injurious consequences, but which is above and beyond the essential constituents of the crime or tort itself." For example, aggravated assault is usually differentiated from simple assault by the offender's intent (i.e., to murder, to rape etc.), the extent of the injury to the victim, or the use of a deadly weapon. An aggravating circumstance is a kind of attendant circumstance and the opposite of an extenuating or mitigating circumstance, which decreases guilt." -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 4 hrs (2008-07-12 12:22:58 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Compare with: www.procuraduria.gov.co/descargas/conceptos/conceptos2007/s... "Si el fundamento de la causal de agravación prevista en el numeral 2º del artículo 110 de la Ley 599 de 2000 es la protección de la vida de la víctima, debe tenerse en cuenta que en el homicidio culposo la víctima ya ha fallecido. Distinto es el análisis respecto del artículo 121 ejusdem, que extiende al delito de lesiones personales culposas la agravante punitiva por abandonar sin justa causa el lugar de comisión de la conducta, como quiera que el sujeto agente está obligado a socorrer a la víctima y el abandonarla conlleva a un ***mayor desvalor de la conducta*** al ponerla en grave peligro." |
