“Attempt [sic] Murder A person attempts to commit a crime when he knowingly or intentionally engages in conduct that constitutes a substantial step toward the commission of the crime. The crime of Murder is defined by statute as follows: A person who knowingly or intentionally kills another human being commits Murder. To convict the Defendant of Attempt [sic] Murder, the State must have proved each of the following elements: 1. The defendant knowingly or intentionally 2. Engaged in conduct that constitutes a substantial step toward the commission of 3. The knowing or intentional killing of another human being. The defendant must have had the specific intent to commit Murder in order to be found guilty of Attempt [sic] Murder.

1 later decision quote this exact passagee.g. Smith v. State“The crime of Voluntary Manslaughter, an included offense of Count I: Murder, is defined by statute as follows: ‘A person who knowingly ... kills another human being while acting under sudden heat, commits Voluntary Manslaughter, a Class B felony. However, the offense is a Class A felony if it is committed by means of a deadly weapon.’ The existence of sudden heat is a mitigating factor that reduces what otherwise would be Murder to Voluntary Manslaughter.”
