Overview: Defendant's convictions for second-degree murder and attempted second-degree murder were reversed; while the State's evidence may have proved an impulsive overreaction to an attack or injury, it was insufficient to prove ill will, hatred, spite, or evil intent so as to fall under ¿ 782.04(2), Fla.
