Halakhah for Keritot 44:34
ואם נפש וי"ו מוסיף על ענין ראשון
But has he not, after all, to bring an unconditional guilt-offering when he becomes aware of the transgression?<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' For the sacrifice offered at the time when there was still doubt as to the trespass cannot expiate for the sin that afterwards becomes certain.');"><sup>25</sup></span>
Sefer HaChinukh
The commandment of a definite guilt-offering: To offer a sacrifice for well-known sins - that we will explain. And this sacrifice is called a definite guilt-offering. And it is a sacrifice of a ram that needs to be worth two sela (Keritot 22b). And there are some of these sins for which this sacrifice comes, that are whether he sinned inadvertently or whether volitionally; and there are some for which it only comes specifically for the inadvertent, but not for the volitional.
