She is charged with murder, not capital murder. No DP. A LONG sentence is in store for her, however, imho.

She doesn't face the Death Penalty on this one, though. Pretty strange, huh ??

A difficult call, I'd guess. She didn't start out with the intention of murdering him, but once she kept him the garage to die, refusing him help, then wouldn't that be premeditated? I'm no legal begal, there has to be some reason why they aren't going for the death sentence in such a horrible case.

And please, add me to your ping list.

I'm disappointed at that decision.

You're not DP eligible unless you commit a second felony in the commission of a murder or unless the murdered is an LEO.

DWI and failing to aid would both be misdemeanors, I believe, and the only proof of DWI would be the defendant's own statements since it was months afterwards that the crime was even discovered.

Set me up on the smaller ping list once the trial starts. I'm contemplating giving a heads up to my brother-in-law who has become a Court TV addict.
