no doubt. i don't have all the facts, and admit that... but there's no way they don't shouldn't be charged with voluntary manslaughter.


The facts support felony murder. I don’t believe that these idiots woke up that morning with the intention of killing the 1st black man they saw—that’s absurd. But what folks who don’t know the facts (i.e. the Georgia statutes relevant to this case) is that their “intent” does not matter. They caused the death of another human being while they were in the commission of a felony—aggravated assault. That is murder. I think some of you are under the impression that they had to have planned this out for it to qualify, and that is simply not the case.

This. The people talking about manslaughter are ignorant of the statutes.

i'm open to being wrong on the charges of course. I phrased it elsewhere as "at a minimum, they should be charged with voluntary manslaughter under the best conceivable conditions."
