18. On January 31, 2017, A, a 31-year-old male, struck C, a 10-year-old boy, several times with a broom because A suspected that it was C who scratched his vehicle with a rock. C sustained serious wounds that eventually caused his death. A was charged with, and convicted of, murder, qualified by treachery. A moved for reconsideration, arguing that the prosecution failed to prove that he deliberately adopted the means employed to ensure the commission of the crime without risk to himself. Is A correct? Reason(s).
