I don’t get it. Why only second degree murder? What does a brother have to do to get primo treatment?

To further my own question, why second degree?

In particular, second degree murder lacks the premeditation often required for the prosecution of a first degree murder.

It seems to me that digging the grave and positioning the murder weapon the day before the killing is prima facie premeditation. Charging second degree murder is looking more and more at odds with the law.
