Argued before MURPHY, C.J., and ELDRIDGE, COLE, RODOWSKY, McAULIFFE, ADKINS and BLACKWELL, JJ.


McAULIFFE, Judge.

In this case we hold that an indispensable element of the crime of attempted murder is a specific intent to murder. We also hold that the trial judge did not abuse his discretion when he permitted testimony by witnesses who, prior to trial, had been shown a videotape recording of the victim's deposition testimony.
