Task: Wrong Candidate Generation
Input (English): whether Appellant possessed a specific intent to kill the victim. Again, although not controlling, the Pennsylvania Suggested Standard Criminal Jury Instructions offer a nearly identical instruction concerning the use of facts to infer a specific intent to kill. Pennsyl vania Suggested Standard Criminal Jury Instructions, § 15.2502(A)(5).

Furthermore, contrary to Appellant’s impression, we find nothing in the instruction of the trial court that the jurors could have interpreted as requiring them to draw an inference.

Output (English): holding that there was no error where one instruction did not inform the jury that in order to convict defendant of attempted murder the evidence must show that defendant had a specific intent to commit murder but where subsequent instruction did inform jury of this requirement and concluding that the instructions when read as a whole adequately informed the jury of the requirement of specific intent to kill
