Just so. But the possibility of further state action in Idaho against US Marshall Degan's widow Karen Degan of Quincy, Mass. for conspiring with Horiuchi to murder Mrs Weaver remains a possibility.
And, since such a conspiracy against the civil rights of Mrs. Weaver remains a federal crime which carries the death penalty, there's no statute of limitations to prevent such a federal action against Horiuchi in the event Karen Dugan would care to testify against him to see possible charges against her lessened.
Of course, Horiuchi may see fit to murder her to prevent that from happening. After all, he's shot one unarmed woman to death already, and he has access to the equipment to do so from H-S Precision.
You lost me. How does the widow of a dead Marshal figure into a muder conspiracy? The entire episode as I understood it hangs on the wording of the ROE that states when suspects may or should be taken under fire and under what circumstances. What's the spouse have to do with on-site operations?
However I can write a nice letter to the folks at HS to let them know why I will never, ever purchase another one of their products.
