repeatedly has held that “persons cannot attempt or conspire to commit an offense that requires an unintended result.” State v. Foster, 202 Conn. 520, 522 A.2d 277, 281 (1987); see State v. Beccia, 199 Conn. 1, 505 A.2d 683, 684-85 (1986) (conspiracy to commit arson in third degree is not a cognizable offense because third-degree arson requires reckless mental state and conspirators cannot agree to accomplish a required specific result recklessly); State v. Almeda, 189 Conn. 303, 455 A.2d 1326, 1330-31 (1983) (attempted manslaughter is not a cognizable offense because it is not possible to have specific intent to commit unintentional killing). A number of intermediate appellate courts have reached similar conclusions. Cf., e.g., Evanchyk v. Stewart, 340 F.3d 933, 939-40 (9th Cir.2003) (<HOLDING>); State v. Wilson, 30 Kan.App.2d 498, 43 P.3d
