How to use "Foul play" in context?
Foul play, in law, is a term that applies to any criminal act that is not simply an act of negligence, but is done with the specific intent to injure or harm someone else. This intent can be inferred from the act itself, or from the circumstances surrounding it. While any act that injures or kills another person can be considered foul play, most foul play offenses fall into one of two categories: intentional homicide and intentional injury. Intent to injure may also be evidenced by an act that creates a substantial risk of death or bodily harm, or by a deliberate act with the intent to humiliate or upset another person.
