Yes, but if you see someone commit at least murder (and know about the second), how is not fleeing with him, throwing out cell phones in an effort to keep him from being tracked by police, not giving aid and comfort in the commission of a crime?
When the guys jump in the car after having robbed the bank, even if the driver did not realize ahead of time that is what they were going to do and he had no role in helping plan or execute the robbery, if he sits by and rides along as they escape, doing nothing at the first opportunity to turn them in, is he not an accessory after the fact?
She knew Ludwig committed murder. She voluntarily jumped in the car and ran away with him. Had she not, he might have hung around longer looking for her, or stayed in the area longer, thus facilitating his capture before his wild and reckless chase in Indiana where he was putting people's lives at risk by running them off the road, etc.
I think this is a purely a "whaaa-she's suffered enough, poor little girl" lame decision.
I agree with you.
I agree with your whole post.
One thing though, this may be a girl that has no remorse. The things she did weren't normal for ANY age girl with a good family. Oh, dating an older guy and going behind her parents back is nothing new.....but knowing the guy had guns, watching him murder her parents THEN taking off with him.......NOT NORMAL>
A NORMAL person would have run AWAY from danger. She ran towards it. She may be one of those people that don't have normal emotions and/or feelings. I don't care how much she thought she loved the guy. Knowing he killed them should have sent shockwaves thru her: "DANGER DANGER"
And the B.S. that maybe she went with him to get him away from her siblings......yeah, right.
