Yes I'm reading an analyzing, and what your telling me is, in the US, if someone starts off with the intention of committing a murder, then decides to not proceed with the murder, they can still be charged with attempted murder.

That's what happened in my scenario, and you said it's still attempted murder.

Sorry, I'm not a lawyer, so I'm I don't do lawyer speak, however I'm being told in Canada, you can actually change your mind, and that a punch to the face isn't deemed attempted murder.
