[...] le crime de meurtre fut classé en deux catégories, soit le «meurtre qualifié» et le «meurtre non qualifié». De façon générale, le meurtre qualifié est un meurtre prémédité et commis de propos délibéré; le meurtre commis à l'occasion de certains crimes avec violence, par l'intervention directe ou sur les conseils de l'accusé; et le meurtre d'un agent de police ou d'un garde de prison dans l'exercice de ses fonctions, meurtre résultant d'une telle intervention directe ou de tels conseils.
