‘’If you beat someobody, you fight and you cause injury to someone, do you know that if that person dies within a year and a day, the law still presumes you are the one that killed the person, that the injury you have caused this person is still the cause of the death except otherwise stated by experts, autopsy or something else. That is why it is dangerous. ‘’
