Someone that had nothing to do with a murder gets charged with murder and you think it's fine because it fits within the confines of the law?
Precisely this. “He should have never taken the 85 cents if he didn’t want to spend the rest of his life in prison.”

what a reach to try and draw ANY parallels between what is happening to Trump
It's a good analogy.
There is a jumping off point where the legal system connects events with events to create new crimes and it's limited only by the imagination.
That's actually real. And I'm not saying the felony murder rule is not a useful legal tool.
But having a conversation about putting limits and logical breaks into event sequences around that tool is a good thing.

You do realize I'm defending Trump indirectly, right?
Or is this conversation too complicated for you to follow?

This must be a rhetorical question.

Well I do.

Actually I will admit I goofed. I didn't look directly at the name I was responding to and it came off as "oogabooga68" via my side eye.
That's who I thought I was quoting.
I don't think you will be melting over Trump's major felony conviction in a year or so, no, so receipts aren't necessary.

Pretty sure NC does, too.

If the person really had nothing to do with it they shouldn't be charged under this statute. This is for people whose criminal acts led to someone's death and without those criminal acts, no death would have occurred.
What you're talking about is a statute that is mis-applied, not a faulty statute.

I still don’t think any of them should spend life in prison for their crimes against me.
If those crimes ended up causing the death of an innocent bystander, what should the penalty be?
(Hint—they aren't being charged on your behalf. They're being charged on behalf of the person whose death they caused.)

This article really leads me to abhor Sarah Stillman, the author.
It would be nice to have a conversation about the facts of the case without all the irrelevant life stories about childhood, family conversations, occupations, hopes and dreams.
When there are finally facts, I’m already doubting the accuracy because of all the effort to emotionally impact the reader.
I’m going to have to look for a different source.

That's about as practical as charging a gun manufacturer in a shooting death

The thieves should have weighed the risks before they decided to break the law.

Because the gun manufacturer was engaging in illegal activity by selling the gun?
Otherwise no, those are apples and oranges.

Watch a few episodes of The First 48, and you'll get a pretty clear picture of felony murder statutes.

The guy that was just checking doors didn't do anything to contribute to their deaths just as the fun manufacturer didn't

I’m really having a hard time understanding how Baxter reasonably caused the deaths of the cyclists. Do you? Or are you saying in this particular instance, it doesn’t make sense?
