This thread just cracks me up.
I think we will have to wait and see if the state seeks felony murder instructions and if they are so entitled, then it will be so. As felony murder is not a lesser charge, but rather another different murder charge, if it comes into play it will be interesting. A second degree felony murder charge could come into play because that might be easier to prove? don't know and that is why I have been trying to stick to what she is currently charged with and the possibilites of a jury being able to convict on those specific charges.
But maybe you guys should bump an old thread about comparing the charges and what the jury may be instructed to deliberate on.
thanks.
The topic is still premeditation and the ability to prove it for a conviction. Not lesser charges and not felony murder charges, but if she can be convicted on premeditated murder.
Thoughtelf - legal standards and personal standards are a far cry from each other. So, just know that many will be debating it from completely different levels and so it will be an even more unusual thread LOL.
But you seem to be describing every thread in the forum. What she did, when she did it and what it may mean it terms of allegedly killing her daughter.As always, thank you for your thoughts and input.
