Question: A man who believed that his wife was cheating on him with her gym trainer decided to kill the trainer. He loaded his handgun and set off for the trainer's house. Because he was anxious about committing the crime, the man first stopped at a bar, drank eight shots of hard liquor, and became intoxicated. He then left the bar and went to the trainer's house. When the trainer answered the door, the man shot and killed him. The man then passed out on the trainer's porch. The man has been charged with murder in a jurisdiction that follows the common law. Can the man raise an intoxication defense? 
A: No, because drinking at the bar was the proximate cause of the killing.
B: No, because the man intended to commit the murder and drank to strengthen his nerve.
C: Yes, because drinking at the bar was a foreseeable intervening cause of the killing.
D: Yes, because the man's intoxication negated the specific intent required for murder.
