1989Id. [1] To the extent that that dicta would seem to apply to the case at hand by referring to a failure to give the long form excusable homicide instruction as being fundamental error when, as here, defendant did not request that instruction, that defense was encompassed within the evidence, and the arguably inaccurate short form excusable homicide instruction had been given, we would not agree.
