oblique intent

Explanation:
Italian Wiki: Il dolo eventuale è una forma di dolo indiretto, si ha quando l'agente pone in essere una condotta che sa che vi sono concrete (rectius: serie) possibilità (o secondo una teoria affine concrete probabilità) produca un evento integrante un reato eppur tuttavia accetta il rischio di cagionarli. È proprio questa accettazione consapevole del rischio che fa differire questa figura dall'affine figura della Colpa Cosciente. L'Agente decide di agire "costi quel che costi", accettando il rischio del verificarsi dell'evento.

reckless endangerment

Explanation:
some more context would be useful but essentially someone is guilty of "dolo eventuale" where their actions are not specifically deisgned to cause the end event but said end event was a reasonably possible result of their actions.

context is needed because this could be classified in different ways depending on what the end event was. For instance if your reckless actions result in another person's death, this would be classified as manslaughter in England and Wales.

Peer comments on this answer (and responses from the answerer)

neutral

Michele Armellini: If you choose this tack, why not just "recklessness"? "Endangerment", AFAIK, implies crimes against persons, while we have no clue that this is the case. Just curiousity, not a critique.

20 mins

-> you are right. Without more context it's very difficult. Is there a contractual relationship between the parties? What is the even that has occured / damage suffered. If damage to property reckless endagerment (of property could still be used).

neutral

Sylvia Gilbertson: I agree that it could well be reckless endangerment in a criminal case, but this is apparently a civil case.

51 mins

-> you are correct...the precise english term would very much depend on the context. I tried to make that clear in my explanation whilst also explaining the concept.
