    If we (as I suppose you're wanting to do) extrapolate a general rule from this specific case; we'd ask: is it the intent behind or the result of your actions that is the benchmark by which they are judged? Personally, I don't think it's an either/or proposition at all, but is a both/and, with the weight being on the latter. While our intentions are important and do matter, "the road to Hell is paved with good intentions." Regardless of whether or not you 'meant well' in doing something that resulted in a negative outcome, the fact remains that the outcome was negative. Physical facts, such as accidental death or injury, are not negated by good intentions, the facts remain and will so for all eternity.
