Crime of Passion，即激情犯罪；冲动犯罪。激情犯罪是指人在激情状态下发生的杀人、伤人、毁物等暴力性犯罪行为。“激情”是一种爆发性的、短暂的、比较猛烈的情绪状态，通常是在受到外部环境的不良刺激之后形成的应激反应。

Crime of Passion：a defendant's excuse for committing a crime due to sudden anger or heartbreak, in order to eliminate the element of "premeditation." This usually arises in murder or attempted murder cases, when a spouse or sweetheart finds his/her "beloved" having sexual intercourse with another and shoots or stabs one or both of the coupled pair.

Heat of Passion，即冲动杀人、激情杀人。激情杀人是刑法理论上激情犯罪的一种，与预谋杀人（premeditated murder）相对应，即本无任何故意杀人动机，但在被害人的刺激、挑逗下失去理智，失控进而将他人杀死。激情杀人与其他类型的故意杀人罪的不同之处在于：它往往具有突发性、不可预测性、非预谋性。

Heat of Passion：in a criminal case, when the accused was in an uncontrollable rage at the time of commission of the alleged crime. If so, it may reduce the charge, indictment or judgment down from murder to manslaughter, since the passion precluded the defendant having premeditation or being fully mentally capable of knowing what he/she was doing.
